Weight Reduction
Took the truck to the scales the other day. With a full tank of gas, spare, toolbox with tools and a floor jack, I weighed in at 4260 lbs. I am going to a stock 15 inch wheel and drag radials in the rear so I will be loosing the 20's. If I go down to a quarter of a tank, loose the tool box and spare what do you think I can get my race weight down to?

were you in the truck? id say ud probably lose bout 30lbs for the spare, depending on how many tools you got in the box probably 30-60lbs and probably least 100lbs going to the other wheels and tires. probably 100lbs for the gas tank to. id say anywhere from 250-300

Donuts are real fun in his truck too..... 
What about the Spare Tire Holder under the bed? Thats atleast 25lbs of scrap?
What about your Hitch? That has to weigh a good bit?
Thats all i can think of.
