Yes, indeedy. I'm happy that the previous owner of my TriStar put the
big brake kit on it (I'd hate to try hauling that much weight and need
to brake in an emergency...)

(note when I was typing up the numbers I couldn't remember if it was
1360 or 1380 kg for the rear...I thought it was 1380, but figured I'd
use the smaller number. And I was too lazy to go back to the TriStar to
verify the number) Seems your info confirms that it was 1380kg for the
rear...

Still that's not a lot of weight considering the size of the bed on a
Doka.)
