Re: Truck Weight

My 57 was 3520 with me(190) in it

1980 on the front wheels, 1540 on the rear

81 Pontiac GrandPrix clip, iron head alum intake 350/turbo 400, stock copper rad, heater delete, no a/c, 1991 silverado bench seat, relocated battery, aluminum fuel cell in the rear, 8.5 ten bolt rear, stock leafs w/traction bars, aluminum wheels, stock body, full bumpers, full exhaust out the back.

I raced it lots and people always thought it was heavier than it was.....

Re: Truck Weight

So I wonder how much weight I am saving with the C4 suspension? I know my front and rear weigh a LOT less but not sure how much. Maybe 300-500 lbs?
