Front crossemember weight (Any one have theirs off their truck)?
Anyone have their front crossmember off their truck right now? I would love to know what it weighs. Preferably with out the control arms, spindles ect. But If you don't have it apart, I'll take the total weight.
Thanks in advance. |

Re: Front crossemember weight (Any one have theirs off their truck)?
i have a couple of em right now. you didn't give a year. my '68 is probably around 60-70lbs, and the '77 is probably +5lbs over that.
i don't have a scale to weight it with. i'm just going by how much i can dead lift, and how much strain i gotta put into lifting it. it probably weighs about as much as a 20" wheel + tire.

I just weighed 1 from a 67. It was 65lb bare. Hope this helps.

Re: Front crossemember weight (Any one have theirs off their truck)?
Thanks guys.. My plan is to cut the center section out and put some 2x4 .120 in it's place to shave some weight on my 63 drag truck. I'll re-use the spring pockets..

 Honestly, I figured I was dead wrong. Speaking of your truck, is that thing finished yet?!!

 . It is okay though because I have an idea and it doesn't include any jail time
