Its at 5500 now with a full tank of fuel. So subtract 17 gallons of fuel, tailgate, seat, torsion set up, stock fuel tank, gut the dash, loose the torsion bars, 1 battery and couple other small things. I think its doable.

either I or you need a different scale.

Thanks Brian, I'll have to buy a set if I start breaking u joints or twisting shafts. Until then, I hope to get away with the least amount of extra bells and whistles. Cause I'm cheap haha

just make sure your pinion angle is within a couple degrees of what the t-case output angle is at. shims are like 10-15 bucks from summit i think. may even be less.

Don't hate, it will wax the PPE shop delivery truck, Ive seen that thing :roflmao::D



Forced Inductions called me... apparently the 87mm turbine wheel is backordered from BorgWarner for 2-3 weeks, then another 1-2 till F.I. gets the turbo to me... :/


On a brighter note... the rest of the downpipe/intercooler pipe stuff from ATS comes tomorrow, and the drivers side dipstick from Merchant comes Tuesday. Ready to get this truck running :cool:

hey bud, no need for papers I meant to say 350 at best. The good thing is most of these wieghts are posted.

the seat is easy 50lbs they are heavy! the tow hooks are less than 2lbs, tail gate someone wieghed I think 60lbs ?? dwpends on if ya have spray in liner

If you remove the tire mount x member and hitch your close to 90lbs the bumpers is prob 60lbs


I run a Total power battery its 15lbs ish and 1500 ca


Perhaps I need a different scale ?????
