Who’s overweight?

[Chrisleduc1]

Your rig, of course.
What are you guys weighing in at? I may or may not have tipped the scale and not today
Who has a heavy LX?

 

[hankinid]

5800 lb. with a full tank, me around 170, and a 50 pound cattle dog.

We've got a certified scale about a mile up the road, long enough to take a semi- with 40' trailer. Drop $1 in the box on the honor system.

Heres my 200 stats:
3600 lbs front
3280 lbs rear
Total 6880lbs unloaded - just me and a tank of gass

 

[Chrisleduc1]

I works not think the following would result in the attached pic:
‘18lx
(5) heavy tires.
Slee rear
HiLift
LRA 40
Bud built stage 4 aluminum
Prinsu rack
Arb summit front bar
12k winch
Various lights and second battery
3 car seats
200lb driver
~20 gal fuel

I’m thinking to get a second opinion, though it very well might be right.

Looks like you might have been bloated a bit. I’d say get a second opinion.

Honestly? I bet it's not terribly far off. Let me introduce you to my 7400lb 100...

100 Series Weight Watchers... Anyone else scaled theirs?

Hopefully others can chime in and add data points to this but I felt this was worth starting to collect some info on and a good reference point for others. I wanted to see what my current setup weighs at it's maximum road warrior load. That meant full tank of fuel, family, and gear for a road...

And that was before I dumped the lightweight Titan 12k winch for a Warn M12 that is at least 80lb more and added a Slee rear bumper with dual swingouts and a 5th 35" Toyo MT...

I see you said 20 gal of fuel but was that just in the main and was the LRA full or empty?

 

[Chrisleduc1]

Anyone happen to know what all is done, when these are armored, to support the extra weight? @cruiseroutfit ?? Obviously it’s normally LCs, so suspension work, but anything else? I’m sure this has been discussed at length elsewhere..

 

[wtmtnterror]

It will be interesting to see how everyone's setup varies, I don't have a weight on my rig alone. I did just get back from a trip to the Northwest and hit a scale fully loaded with our small camp trailer, came in at 10,040! driver only, full tank of gas and 32 gal of water in the trailer.

Lx owners have added various 20mm and 30mm spring spacers.

Armored lx have a heavier weight spring, though I’ve never seen any specs on them. It is discussed in some length on a thread I neglected to bookmark..

 

[Chrisleduc1]

@grinchy this one?

GVWR, how much can a 200 safely carry?

FYI I got ahold of Lovell’s a while back and the GVM upgrade with 2” lift spring rate specs are as follows: Front: TFR-121 – 675lbs/inch Rear: TRR-122HD – 320lbs/inch The front is less than the 750# you estimated above, but the rear is significantly higher. For those who are interested in...

There is someone on this board with a 570 running stock 100-series springs as well.

I'm afraid to get on a scale to check.

And for my rig too!

That too sounds within the expected range for that setup albeit on the high side for a solo trip. You were close to 900lbs heavier than my turtle/200 setup with a family of 4 loaded for 14 days. I scaled in at 9260 on the way back in and had the following load:

(copy pasta from linked thread below)
42gal of water (350lbs), a couple marine batteries, 240lb RTT (which is a huge RTT) etc. We had clothes to be prepared for freezing temps and clothes for 115 (those don't really take up that much room!) Also had a full ARB 65 fridge and dry food for a good chunk of the trip for a family of 4.

That being said I hit the scales on the way back and here's what weighed out with a full tank of fuel & a 2/3 tank of water:
Steer Axle (Front): 3200
Drive Axle (Rear): 3940
Trailer Axle: 2120
Total: 9260

My Turtleback/200 setup:
'OLE BLUE - 2016 Blue Onyx Mods and Adventures

 

[indycole]

Depending on the load we’re 8000-9000 lbs. the truck itself with no people, gear, or supplies is 7500 lbs.

 

[wtmtnterror]

My trailer is within 100 lbs. of a base Turtleback (2,040 lbs. with water) so most likely the added weight is on the cruiser. Front bumper, sliders, rear drawers...

[Haggis]

I'm at 7500 with no people as well...

 

[Rigger]

Mine is 6,760#

 

[radman]

I weigh 180lbs...
1/2 tank of gas.

 

[Chrisleduc1]

I got a chance the other day to weigh in with all the mods, 90% fuel (~60 gal), 3 kids in heavy car seats, wife, and a fair amount of gear in the rear and the 4 gal of water filled on the Slee rear.
