Default 4400lbs

And according to the specs it should weigh in at like 3866lbs.

My truck needs a diet, I think

4400 - 180 = 4220lbs without me in it...

4220 - 152 = 4068lbs w/o 30" tires

4068 + 132 = 4200lbs with factory tires

4200 - 50 = 4150lbs without the sub, amps and small tool box.

4150 - 20 = 4130lbs without the extra lights (being VERY generous to the weight of all the lights, lol)

4130 - 3866 = 264lbs

I really doubt the brushguard weighs 264lbs

Unless you have a very small box/sub combo I doubt it only ways 50 lbs my 2 12's in sealed box with amp weighs in at 100 lps plus then you got your tool box

It's a single Alpine 10" sub... and I can lift the whole shebang with one hand.... It ain't that heavy, I'm not exactly in the best of shape

Thats what I was thinking the starting weight number of 3866 came from if you add all the 4x4 equipment it adds up faster!!

Default RE: 4400lbs

I used a weigh scale... and that 3866lbs is the 4x4 curb weight


Taken right from the specs:






Curb weight (lb / kg):

2WD: 3591 / 1629
4WD: 3866 / 1754

would the 5spd trans weigh more than the 4spd?

also, does the stock weight include gas? and did you weigh yours soon after fill-up?

5 speed should be lighter... It's smaller, and doesn't have the tubing for trans cooling...and that was with 1/2 tank of gas...

Unless the iron front diff is THAT much heavier than the aluminum [sm=jawdrop.gif]

I forgot about that... But still I can't imagine it being more than 20lbs heavier... 50lbs at the most...
