I am looking for the unloaded vehicle weight of a 2004.5 Dodge3500 4X4, crewcab, longbed, cummins600, single rear wheel. I am just trying to figure out if the single rear wheel will have enough payload capacity for my fifthwheel camper.

 

Hedgehog,
You need to weigh your own truck. They all weigh different because of the options. About 5 to 10 bucks and you will know what your trucks weight is. It needs to be full of fuel you ,passengers, and all the stuff you would take with you on a trip then weigh your truck and that will tell you what pin weight you can put on you truck. Only way to do it.

Hedghog:

Ballpark around the 7000 lb mark. Depending on what you carry with you + passengers, gear , fuel - could be + 500 - 1000lbs easy. Not much left over if you have a heavy pin weight but lots of guys do it - but IMO a dually is always better for a 5ver.

 

I have a REGULAR cab 4x4 dually and with the fifth wheel hitch and a full load of fuel (85 gal) and no one in it the cat scales show 7950 lbs.

 

My 03 with a full tank of fuel and 200lb(est) toolbox weighed in at 7400lb. I'd say that you're around 7200lbs but the only way to know for sure is to put it on a scale...

 

Just weighed my 2004.5 3500 SRW, 4x2, full tank, no passengers = 7,060 lbs. Includes my 5th wheel hitch.

 

have yet to weigh it...but the title says 7930 lbs

 

Hedgehog,
There you go pick a weight that fits you. But you will never know what your real weight is unless you weigh your own truck.
Done that.

8640 pounds with the stereo, hitch rails, 150 pounds of rope in the bed, slip tank, empty and the Road Armor bumpers.
I will be adding close to 300 pounds with the advanced air ride hitch and then add 462 pounds when I fill the slip tank.

 

Too many variables as stated previously. My truck with full tank, toolbox, hitch, and NO passengers is about 7800 lbs. Type of transmission, 2 wheel drive vs 4 wheel drive, everything makes a difference. If you have a State DOT scale nearby. When closed they frequently leave the scales turned on so people can use them.

 

Ghost Rider is 8860 lbs, with a total of 94 gallons of fuel and me (350#) setting in it.

 

****, I had a half tank with about 100 lbs in a toolbox and without me in it, it was 7080.

 

my 04 2500 QC auto weighs 7800 with a full tank and no crap in the bed. Alot heavier that I ever expected..
