ToyoGuy Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Hi All, Just got back from the truck scales with another '84 SunRader 4X4 owner, whose rig is essentially stock except for a cab seat upgrade, and finally got to find out what they weigh stock and how much I added to mine when I did a pretty much total rebuild. With identical amounts of fuel at 1/3 tank, his stocker came in at 5,200 lbs and mine at 5,400. I was actually gratified with the "only 200 lb over" figure , and felt that the 1-1/4" tubular steel for the rear frame reinforcement, the 1-1/4" tubing for the ceiling and addition of 5/8" marine-grade plywood floor contributed a lot to the total increase. Some of the other moves and changes were: I ditched the stock 4 burner stove w/oven at (60 lbs, as I recall?) for a 2 burner (with no regrets so far), removed the Dometic 3-way fridge in favor of an Edge Star 430 AC/DC fridge that slides under the counter when not in use, and I added a Dometic porcelain toilet, also with no regret and added 200 watts of solar. Yeah, .....and there's probably at least another gallon of resin in there somewhere too..... Cheers, TG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
