If you want the back seat is pretty easy and weights quite a bit, the second battery is also easy.
yeah i hear about a lot of people taking the back seat out, is it really that heavy?
i only have 1 battery with my twin setup.

yes , but in my ex cab its maybe 100 lbs for rear and pass seat , alot bigger diff in the crew cabs . i figure less weight will run faster and is easier on parts .

I just gutted the interior on my extended cab for body work, the ext. cab rear seat prolly weights 80-100lb. The pass front seat isnt too bad, maybe 40lb? The drivers is heavyer beeins its electric. If your seats are electric/leather they weight more.
Id yank the hitch too, nice chunk of steel. If your feelin froggy, rear bumper is heavy too.

All weights are estimates:
2nd battery -- 50 lbs
tailgate -- 70 lbs
hitch -- stocker-40lbs, Titan (like mine)- 60lbs
spare tire -- 70lbs
spare tire winch -- 20lbs
tonneau -- 30lbs
step bars -- 40lbs
pass side seat in a LT is about 70lbs. Non-power probably around 40lbs.
back seat -- 150 lbs .. If you're doing it alone, I recommend separating the smaller seat from the larger half. Easier to lug around that way. 2-13mm bolts and 2-13mm nuts to separate.
Also, diesel fuel is roughly 7lbs/gallon. Half tank max is what I usually run at the track (thats still 91lbs!).
I guess it just depends on what you're goal is.....

My rear seat in the ex cab was only 68 lbs
I removed the rear seat, the hitch, the tow hooks, the middle seat belt for rear seat,The rear soft cover and just the cross rails and all the nuts and bolts and the baby seat and that was 200lbs.

yeah im probably going to take the spare tire winch, rear seat, and passenger seat and let that be it. i dont really want to pull the bumper and hitch and nerf bars. well i say that but its going to depend on how close to 12.0 that i get. if its close i might start pulling more stuff off.
also forgot that was also the tailgate removed in that 200 lbs,Not sure what the spare and winch were since they have been off for awhile.
