Did not see this anywhere but it interested me.

How much does your truck weight in its current configuration.

Mines a 86 F250 4x4 HD 4 speed 460 regular cab and its right at 5350lbs
Which I think is a lot so just wondering what some others rigs weight.

 

I don't even want to know.....

My rims and tires weigh in at over 600 lbs.

 

That's not a lot for these pickups. And people wonder why they don't get very good gas mileage from a pickup?

 

Your scale is off. i would bet it is at least 500lbs heavier. My 86 f250 reg cab 4x4 6.9 4spd. With one fuel tank empty and one half, mine weighs in at 6250. I know my diesel does not weigh 900 more than a big block

 

This is a certified truck scale I used its at the dump I get a slip every time I leave with my weight its always the same.

 

Rolled my truck accross the scales at the scrap yard the other day. 1986 F-250 HD, Extra-Cab, 4x4, 460, T-19, 35" Mudders, and bed box in the back with a few tools and assorted crap. Weighed in at 6,210 lbs, without any passengers.

 

sounds awefully light for a 3/4 ton pick up. My 2wd reg cab short bed lightning weighs 4400 without me in it

 

Homemade,
My truck is very similar to yours and with the job box in the back I'm right around 6300 depending on fuel etc...

 

HHmm well mine is almost all stock from what I can tell so maybe I will weight it at another scale and see how close it is to the first one.

 

I realize this is an old posting, but I had to comment.

I was searching for the weight to my 86 Ford, F250, xtracab, 4x4 diesel when I saw this forum. I figured it would be close, but under my Crewcab. That is...until I read this forum.

I've weighed my 86 F350, CREWCAB, Diesel, 4X4 (Dana 60), with a C-6 at a local scrap metal yard. Not sure about my fuel at the time, but I know I wasn't full on both tanks. (Diesel fuel is approximately 8lbs per gal.)
The truck weighed approximately 6100 lbs (no passengers). I had some hand tools in the cab as well.

Sorry, Diesel_Brad, but I think the scale your using is off.

P.S. My 93 Lightning is heavy for a F150 (#4916 of 5276). Bear in mind that everything was heavy duty on the truck. SVO did not lightweight the truck with the exception of an aluminum driveshaft. The 4 speed trans is heavy too. The truck weighs 1400lbs more than a 93 GT Mustang. To resist flexing, they even made the frame of a Lightning is greater thickness than a standard F150. It's tough to compare it to another truck and say it's an F150.

Please do not take offense to my reply. That is not my intention. Just an F.Y.I
