72 C10 weight
Took a load to the dump this morning and got to weigh in and out at the scales. They have a digital readout. Truck is a 72 c10 long box, ps, pb, ac, with a 350. It has front and rear sway bars, 15x8 steel wheels, 31x10.50-15 tires, 10k Curt hitch, and a full tank of gas.
I checked the display after paying, before I got back on the scale. It was 4,040 lbs. give or take 20 lbs. Their scale displays in 20 lbs. increments. I was close, I guessed 4200 |

I have a 72 C10 SWB , I was curious what it weighed also, since it isn’t close to original anymore.
Last fall I took the truck up to the local county transfer station, I can weigh for free, unless I want a printed ticket, then they charge a $15 scale fee. Anyway the truck weighs 3540 with a half tank of gas. 3760 with me in it ( I should lose 10 pounds) Truck is radio and heater delete, many other changes as well, Ls swapped with T56 magnum. |

Here is the official GM document, which is for the base equipment. Later in this document, the added weights for each option is listed.

Re: 72 C10 weight
Had my K20 weighed many years ago before / after unloading topsoil. Can't recall if I was in the truck, or how much fuel in the tanks (it'll hold 50 gallons).
Anyway, it was 11,300# loaded, and 5300# empty. Three tons of dirt, 40+ miles over the mountain. Steered a bit funny and braking was.... well, I made it without hitting anything. I'll never do that again. |
