I have the rail way shipping slip for my truck. From the factory, it weighed
4405 lbs. Since then I have added nerf bars, Mopar tow hooks, trailer hitch,
Snug Top fiberglass tonneau cover, Rhino spray in liner and switched from
31" tires to 33". I haven't weighed the truck, but I figure I'm in the
4850 - 4900 lb. range empty.
98 Dak 4X4 CC, 5.2, Auto, Sport
