Real weights of an arctic Fox 1140?
Does anyone have any documented ready to use weights? I have a 2008 crew cab duramax dually I know I am going to be "over" the 11,400 gvwr but how far is the real question?

Look no further than 9900lb gvw 2500s that are no different than a 12000lb gvw 3500 save for the badge on the fender.
So what 9,900 gvw 2500 is exactly the same as a 12k gvw 3500 other than the badge? EXACTLY the same! ????? If that's true why do you have ''Firestone Bags, Big Wig swaybar, homemade stable loads'' on your 2500??
Honestly I think you are being misleading and helping people justify their 250/2500 carrying a 5k truck camper... ''cause you just need to add some better wheels''.......
There is very little difference if any between the SRW 3500 and 2500. Once you go to the DRW 3500, the axle and brakes may be bigger than the SRW's, but the frame is still the same. Spring rates vary based on the options chosen and cannot be assumed to be more for a 3500 over a 2500.
