I am going to say your truck weighs in at 5500-6000lbs since my reg cab DIESEL weighs 6200lbs

The equivalent reg cab GAS SD weighs about 7000lbs

Oh man. That's a good bit more then I expected.

My ext cab long bed psd 1995 weighs in at 6500lbs with a half of one tank and an empty bed. but man I didn't expect that. I'm sure I can have someone take a leave out of the superduty pack in front. Idk. This is why I'm still planning it and not doing it yet.

JIst found a deal.

1995 f350 cclb psd zf5 4x4. No bed and has some miles(380k) and needs glowplug selenoid. Under 2500$!

Not sure if I should rob the parts and sell the rest, or swap my bullnose front clip(and a diesel rad support) and bed onto it...hmm

Just because the diesel can last a long time (300k)

Does NOT mean the rest of the truck doesnt wear out. People forget this
