1980 Dodge D-150 weight
Truck is in guide @ 3555 and 3605, what is the realistic race weight for one of these trucks from guys like John Irving, etc who have/do run them.
Rear End 63-4 inches between mounts? weight distribution has got to be an issue. Thinking of a stepside. Thanks Eric

Re: 1980 Dodge D-150 weight
Neither of ours was a problem to make weight even with my portly figure!
The truck was easy to hook going low 1.50 even on radials. Weight distribution was not any worse than our Aspen 2 Door. Get the truck Low with Camaro Frt. springs and flipped rear end with Calvert Bars. Spring Hangers must be removed and put on opposite sides I would sell my newly built 80 Dodge D150 for $8,500. or $6,500 rolling.
