Thanks guys, ill keep it updated as i go.

im shooting for around 2600 pounds, ive still yet to get lightweight race brakes and tubular lower arms. also going to skin the bed sides and hang them on a tubular brace system. might actually end up needing to add some rearward weight to get the bias right

How much weight do you think you removed from the frt? S10 guys skin the frt fenders and get them as light or lighter than glass fenders. Something else to consider for the featherweight.

As far as the front goes....ive probably dropped over 80 pounds.
cut 18-20'' of frame rail off, ditching the stock steering box and linkage, ditched the core support, cut out the complete engine cradle and foward control arm mounts, the tubular k member might weigh 25 pounds, the rack an pinion setup another 18ish, then the new tube rails and rad support with headlight buckets and all around 20-25.

the fenders will be skinned, glass ones are around 4 pounds a piece, stock skinned ones are about 5-7 depend on if aftermarket or oem. im going to also skin the bedsides and cut out a lot of the door guts.

will have lexan all way around, glass hood, heads up composite glass dash, glass bumper.

My glass hood was heavy...if weight is the main concearn, stock may be lighter. I needed carb/intake room. Mine was a glass harwood.

ive got a lift off race weight VFN, way lighter then the stock. its a 6'' but im thinking of making it more of a 5 to 4'' slope back at the windshield an run a lexan scoop. still up in the air on that one. ive got a super vic and fast 4150 and will either have a stinger 3 plate or induction solutions sledgehammer.
