'74 Sovereign 31' weight

I wonder if anyone could help. I am importing a 74 sovereign Intl. LY to australia and the import papers specifically need the Aggregate Traile Mass or GVWR and the Gross trailer mass (weight on each tyre) which i think is GAWR.
Unfortunately the details have all faded on the manufactureres plate and the import papers ask for manufacturers documentation. I got the Tare Mass (unladen weight) from the airstream web site, detailed on the 74 Excella floor plans. Can anyone help with the rest?
On another ask........Anyone got bare plans dimensioned plans of a 74 Sovereign '31 ? Any info would help.

Gvw is 7100 pounds. Axles are 3200 pounds each. 1600 pounds per tire.

Anything as printed reference?

Many thanks for the weights Overlander! Guess having a sovereign 31 you'd know that sort of detail.
The problem i have is the Dept of Transport here are asking for factory or similar specification document specifying the GVWR. I dont suppose you have or know of anything printed, owners manual, spec sheet etc? I had the guy selling the Trailer photograph the Manufacturers spec plate but all the details had faded totally, other than the VIN which was stamped on. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
