Turns out fiberglass fenders weigh about 10 pounds a piece. Also, I was thinking, on low stress smaller bolts, you could replace them with aluminum (such as interior pieces) and larger stress bolts could use titanium (sort of expensive at 7 bucks a bolt versus a buck fifty for aluminum) I...

Oh also maybe an aluminum fuel cell? composite maybe? Try and get it to fix in where the factory is. I think cutting weight on this might not be hard as some think. Just need to get creative.

Oh also what axle is that? Like a dana 60 or something? What are they stock?

Been looking around at 08 Jeep GC SRT-8's, but I think I decided on the Ram. I currently have an extended cab chevy, and will miss ditching the back seat for the SC, but I know it is substantially faster than the QC. Is it possible to run the QC in the mid 12's With fairly minor mods (I...
