What does your rig weigh?

Paul needs some serious intervention help. He is a XJ-Anorexic.

I think he goes to one of those scales in LA which are light to fool the cops.

Mine weights like 4100 not 4125!

I ain't giving up windows just for 40 lbs!

Well, front windows + all the junk that accompany them are good for 60lbs, then you can remove your now useless A/C for another 40lbs. How can you turn down an easy 100lbs?

MJs are supposed to be lighter than XJs, and it makes sense, I'll try and get mine on a scale sometime: Waggy 44, Toy 8", 35s on steel, leafs up front, the usual skids, AC compressor (OBA)... I'm hoping it's under 4000.
 
Just weighed mine.
An anorexic 3760lbs.
Trail ready with half a tank of fuel.

Hinkley's weighed something like 4700lbs.
 
wow, old thread. mine weighed 3600 pounds with no driver, no tools, no spares, half tank of gas in this previous form:

a little off topic, where can i get weighed in san diego, it is a trailer queen.

back on topic
i am guessing some where around 5500 because i removed the V6 and put the SBC 350 in and sliders are 125 lbs each 35" mud terrains frame stiffeners ect... i did build 1/2 doors though.
 
tee hee, isnt a stock rig 2850-3100 or so? according to autotrader's vehicle info for my 87 2 door. thats prolly a 4 cyl rig with no skids bone dry.

Any big moving company will have a drive on scale. I use the Mayflower place.

Most major truck stops have CAT scales. My XJ, fully loaded last year weighed 46-4700, with me in it, food, and camping gear for a weekend. I had no bumper and no roll cage

wow! considering you probably have 500 pounds more axle and tires than I do, that means your chassis/body/drivetrain must be about 1000 pounds lighter... crazy.

My motto:
Whenever you have to decide between using 3/16" or 1/4" plate.
Go with 3/8".


Nothing exceeds like excess
