Re: REMOVE WEIGHT
 
Why do you need to remove weight? How much do you need to remove? First off I would pull the brushguard and the winch, it would suck to see them go, but they are accessories.

Re: REMOVE WEIGHT
 
Winch, ~120lbs
Under caridge protection ~ 150lbs
Brush guard ~50lbs (depending on what one)
rear bumper (if state allows) ~120lbs
fuel tank ~40lbs empty plus ~60lbs for fuel
Interior ~200lbs
get a Soft Top ~100lbs
run flats ~40/wheel

bottom line is, its a heavy truck.... without re-engineering the vehicle you are stuck with it.... if you don't like the weight why not get a Jeep?

Just put a lot of helium baloons in the cabin. Yellow works best (lightest).
