If you were to guess, how much do you think your roll cage weighs? Just the main cab section. Do you have a weight for the entire truck? I'm just curious how much all the extra parts add up. I think my 71 K5 with 35's, was about 4300 lbs. with the hard top on. ( from what I can remember )
Thanks, Steve
I just went over the scales the other day. 5500# with me, 3/4 tank of fuel and no top. 2850# front axle and 2650# rear, not bad.

I think the main cage is 450# or so. I figured it out once with lineal feet of tubing I used and I was around that mark.

That is next on my list, actually. Just deciding if I want round tube or use rectangle for the main body bar.
