how heavy is your rig

[zukijames]

how much does your rig weigh?

 

[mbryson]

4480 lbs

 

[Rusted]

3720 lbs before I extended the cage. It probably added another 150 lbs

 

[zukijames]

if i ever get rid of my death wobble i will go weigh mine im thinking its around 2500 or so

 

[bryson]

I'm going to say mine weighs between 3100 and 3200 lbs. It is a fairly educated guess, but not a certainty.

 

[Tacoma]

I'd have to guess... about.... 5400? Fullsize Blazer w/60/14bolt. That's based on MBryson's 4480# CJ/YJ/TJ/GM.

Changes since weighing mine = the following....

1) moving from about 70% tread 37" Toyo MTs to 40" Kevlars

2) swapping the YJ grille/hood for the MB grille/bondo sculpture hood/tube fenders

I'd imagine I've gained some weight since, is what I'm saying.

i'm pushing around 2800 to 3000 now i think, no clue last time i weighed it was before the 3/4 tons and 39.5 rockers was around 2600 i think.

4520 before the 4 link and I did change the wheels and tires. Same sized tires but, went from IROK's to Rockers. I also changed the wheels from 15" steel beadlocks to 17" aluminum beadlocks. I may be around 4700 to 4800 lbs now.

HA when I weighed mine w/ D44's and no doors it was 5340lbs

I've since added a lot more tube, D60 and other odds and ends. My guess is I'm pushing 6000lbs now

 

[Maverick]

4480 lbs

Just a tad more than his.

 

[jdub]

Surprised, Mine weighs 4200lbs.

That's with hardtop and hard doors, it weighs a ton, my rig is a race car when it is off.

 

[MikeGyver]

YJ, <3k w/o top 'n doors

 

[SmokinCamel]

Mines about 3200 lbs. The truggy back end is pretty light. There is a lot of air back there lol

 

[Dirty Harry]

4200 pounds with full tank of fuel, spare tire, and full spares and camping gear. Full bodied Toyota.

 

[Unimog]

About 9500 lbs with spare and trail gear.

 

[thenag]

About 9500 lbs with spare and trail gear.

Damn I thought I would win at 6500lbs

That was the weight from a brake skid test a few years back with about 1/2 tank of gas (30 gallon tank)

(btw that does technically exceed the GVW of the truck)

87 bronco, 460, np435, np 203/205(200 lbs), d-60, gm 14 bolt (with drums)
massive skid plates, way too many tools and a bunch of extra parts...

I am great to have on the trail... unless my rig brakes or gets stuck... ask rondo about the pritchett run of 09 (or as I call it "winch fest 09")


so you can see why we are going to build a xj this winter

(which of course I will end up having the heaviest xj around too...)

EFI 460 FOR SALE SOON!

[ChestonScout]

6800

 

[Unimog]

Yup - I know the feeling. I've been used as an anchor more than once!

 

[Goose]

Ill bet its about the same now.

yours is a feather-weight for sure!
