with about a ton in the expert van, the steering felt very light and
unstable.
It improved some when I pumped the rear tyres up to 40 psi
Is there anything else I can do to improve handling when fully laden?

Drive slowly

Just as a matter of interest - what is the maximum load these things are
meant to carry?

Two versions, one has 815Kg payload, the other 900Kg

On that basis, a ton is overloaded. Especially if the weight distribution is
poor.
