how much does the stock rear bumper weigh? and how much does a steel roll pan weigh? and the last question, how much less does a fiberglass/urethane roll pan weigh? i am leaning towards getting a steel one, but if the fiberglass one weighs a lot less i will go with that one. thanks

 

The steel pan is only about 6-7 pounds give or take a few. Dunno about the glass pan but i imagine it can't go more then 5 pounds. I would go with the steel pan so that you can weld it in.

 

i wouldnt recomend molding in a rollpan on a stepside bed. its just asking for cracks. if it were fleetside i would say go for it but way too many people have problems with rollpans cracking right where it meets the bed on the stepsides.

 

revival of an old thread! sir michaels rollpan weighs in just over 10lbs. anyone know what the weight of a factory rear bumper is? prefably with all of the mounting brackets that you pull off when installing the rollpan

 

I've been wondering the same thing.

 

i beleive i read its in teh 45-60 lb range....but dont quote that

 

that sounds about right... thats quite a bit of weight to drop in the rear, makes sense why ppl relocate the battery back there now, lol.
