Re: AD Weight Diff rolling v. complete

Curb weight of a stock 53 3100 (first one I clicked on) is 3265 Weigh on the front wheels is 1845 and weight on the rear wheels is 1420

This says your 4BT weighs between 745 and 782 with oil in it so figure the 782. http://www.cumminshub.com/4bt.html Interesting link there.
The ZF-5 weighs right at 175 so your 900 is right close to the total weight. Add clutch and flywheel and you get a few more pounds though.

235 isn't/wasn't light weighing around 650 plus the flywheel, clutch and bellhousing and trans. Total you are probably around 300 lbs heavier on the front than it was with the stock six if that.

My ongoing truck projects:
48 Chev 3100 that will run a 292 Six.
71 GMC 2500 that is getting a Cad 500 transplant.
77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
