I would appreciate that as well. My registration just says 5000 lbs.
I have the info at home and will post when I get there. Had to weigh my trailer for registration so the truck was on the scale with it.
EDIT:
5200# which would include trailer tongue weight. Trailer was 1220# for total of 6420#. That was with FRP top on, aftermarket Expedition One front and rear bumpers (dual swing-out rear), Cruisin' Offroad sliders, winch, aftermarket roll cage...I'm guessing around an additional 500-600# of steel.

Heaviest I scaled it was 3,050 kg in August 2009, loaded for a trip up the Canol road and to Inuvik
Only armor was an aluminum rear bumper with swing outs. Stock front bumper, pto winch, and no sliders. No drawer system either. Did have a roll cage inside. 40" irok's on 16" steel wheels. Technitop RTT bolted directly to the FRP - no roof rack.
Bent the rear axle Full Floating housing on the trip.

Thanks for the help so far. The reason for my inquiry is I'm installing dual rate coilovers and am trying to choose the spring rates. I really need to get it over on some scales that can measure F/R bias but it is not drivable at this time.
So, my truck has an ARB deluxe steel bullbar, 8274 with rope, no sidebars. Kaymar dual swing-away with two spares meaning a total of 6 BFG KM2s 255/85R16s on 16x7 Steel CSA rims. 125 litre long range tank.
Around town (eg. pretty much empty) it weighs 1103kg front and 1250kg rear. Loaded up for a 4-day trip (food, fridge, recovery gear, tent, chainsaw, 25L water) the rear jumps up to 1722kg.
For longer trips I reckon I'd hit around 1800-1850 but probably no more, there isn't much difference in my packing between a weekend and a month.
