Has anyone actually weighed their 04.5 3500 4x4 QC SRW SB 48RE (preferably with a full tank)? I realize I'll have to add for hitch, people and stuff, but a true baseline would be good to start with. I don't trust DC's published measures (too many have said it's wrong).

I am going to be taking a look at a newer 5er this weekend and it may come down to its pin weight being too heavy.

Thanks in advance,
Neil

My 03 weighs 7540 with the 5VR hitch installed and a few other things I normally would carry on a camping trip

Just take it to the nearest CAT scale and weigh it, it only runs about $8 for the first visit of the day and $1 for every other visit during the same day. That way you can weigh it and your load t be sure what it actually weighs instead of what the dealers paper work might say

By the way we are set up pretty much the same so you weight will be close

My 03 3500 SRW SWB 4X4 6 speed quad cab weighed 7340 with me and two Dana 60 Ring-and-pinion sets in it. As weighed at a metal recycling scale.

Thanks. I've been going with 7500lbs (loaded) as a baseline. I guess that's about right.

I'll get it weighed when I get the chance.
