Does anybody know the maximum load for towing is?
Just done a quick google search and it states the towing capacity for a conquest is 1600lbs.
Argo Conquest 8x8
Here is some other towing capacities for other models...

Max Towing capacity for my Conquests is as much as they can pull without spinning out. Usually limited by ground conditions, soft, muddy, Muskeg, ect.

Hahaha, I think that was 17 sheets of 1/2" and 3/4" OSB Plywood across the back of the machine, I think thats close to 1,200lbs. Then the gear under the wood, plus a couple 200+ lb guys. It was probably about a Ton on the Conquest, that was the second load that day, and the only time I've ever broke an Axle. Was winter and in deep snow, no trailers involved :-).

My unit wouldn't last a day left on the trail. Nice videos
What an adventure. If I could find one trail like that in New York state, where you would not be arrested, I would be on it. Not hauling so much stuff of course. Please keep the videos coming. A man can dream!
Rock Doctor,
Where are you located? The terrain looks much like the area where I live.
Aprox mile 300 on the Alaska Highway.
I believe that's about 1,300 miles from you :-)
You should stop in for a coffee on your way past sometime. If you travel south on the Alaska Highway
