I think that's rated loaded weight for each axle. The weight you are looking for is curb weight. You could go to a weigh station for trucks to get this weight, it should be around 5700.

Hmm. It said "gross vehicle weight" and gave the front half, and the rear. I'll dig a pic up

**edit** you're correct

I'd still like to know what it weighs.... If you get a chance of course.

So Speed Engineering makes Y-pipes for the 6.2L AWD Denali now? I just emailed them and they said they didn't.

Bringing this one back...I'm also curious about better mounts and whether the Speed Engineering y-pipes fit...since I broke the driver side mount on my new to me 07 Denali

I just purchased a 2011 Denali for the fiancee and driver's side mount is gone. I'm with Slow91z, what's the deal with the better mounts? I'm only wanting to replace this once.
I'll call Speed Engineering to discuss the y-pipe and report back.

Conversation between myself and Sam at Speed Engineering:

Me:
Okay. Can you provide the part numbers for those two items?
Also, I have some forum members who are interested in purchasing the same items for their GMT900 AWD Denalis. Do you have something that will work for them?

Sam:
25-1013+25-1015 would be for the 1 ¾ longtubes and ORY and 25-1009+25-1015 would be for the 1 7/8 longtubes and ORY. For the GMT900 I’m not too familiar with that, is it just the model year of the truck?
Me:
Yes, it's just the 07-13 models
Sam:
Yes they’ll work for the 2009-13 models.
Me:
For the 2WD and AWD Denalis?
Sam:
Yes for both 2WD and 4WD.



Now, back to the mount....called and left a VM with Prothane but have yet to hear back. Hopefully, they have the solution to GM's design flaw!

Website now states y-pipe works with 6-speed transmission which I believe was the issue previously.

I'm interested to read the response from Prothane if/when you get it. I don't understand why these companies have no interest in making motor mounts for any GM truck newer than '98.
