New to the site.......Just bought a 1992 Dodge Dakota longbed 2 wheel drive for $200.00with a 3.9 and auto tranny(bad tranny). I have to trailer it home and was wondering if anyone knows the approximate weight.I have a trailer rated at 4000lbs and was wondering if that would be sufficient to haul it on, the truck is about 60 miles from where I live!
Thanks Tim

 

A reg cab short bed 4x4 weighs in at 4,036lbs so figure you do have a little extra bed weight but you don't have a transfer case, front diff, etc, so i think you'll be fine

 

Your good. strap it down tight!

 

not to steal your thread, but anybody know what a 96 V8 4x4 ext cab short bed weighs?

thanks

 

When I weighed mine it came out just above 4150. Everyones is differnt! But that should be close to yours.

 

My truck is the same as yours except mine is 2WD.
Mine is tagged to weigh in at 5200# or so.

 

The tag gives how much the truck could take with load and all. not curb weight.

 

The tag is GVW, Gross vehicle weight, vehicle weight with a load, as Crazy said. Everyone's weight really is different, I've seen identical trucks come up with different weights, all you need is a variance in the scale and it'll throw the weight off.
