Did you say 4050 for an ECSB? Or did you mean 5050?

Nope, you read that right bud, four thousand, fifty maybe 4100 depending on what all I add. These weights are without me in the truck (about 230) check out the weight sticky in the drag racing section...

Hahaha, yeah, as far as I know I have the lightest extended cab on the site... Which isn't necessarily my goal, just worked out that way. Its a result of many hours laying under this thing with a cutoff wheel saying to myself.... Eh, I don't really need that. Lol...

Holy cow!!! With a turbo kit, you are going to go really fast. With the 5.3, I think low 11's are within reach.

Want to come to Cali with your cut off wheel and put my truck on a diet? That is great. Any pictures of the interior?

Sa-weet! Lol... Thanks for the update Kyle. I keep my blackberry on PT.net so ill be checking for updates and browsing in general. Actually, this is the only way I have to access the site, still haven't hooked up all my BS at home lol. May go to town later and rob some wireless with my laptop

LC, I don't have any pics of the interior, stripped or otherwise, maybe I need to? Lol. Its nothing special.
