the 60 gets a little more narrow toward the tail shaft than a 80. If I remember I ca try and post a pic of a 80 beside a 60. I will not be until monday before I can do so, Im staying at my Moms for the weekrnd getting the truck ready.

He's actually pretty damned close with that 80lb guess.

60E: 163.2 lb wet
80E: 254 lb wet
