Well - the rims are 250 lbs, but curb weight includes fuel and passengers - full tank is 400 lbs of diesel...... 600 lbs of driver and two passengers.... I doubt the interior bits are more than 100 lbs. Depending on how much fuel you had on the truck at the time - I don't see you getting there...

Doubt it. That's probably about an extra 100 lbs. Wrenching for over 20 years has given me a pretty keen eye for such estimates. And when you subtract the weight savings of your 5 alloy rims it's probably irrelevant. Like I said I bet your truck is within 100 lbs of 18.500 lbs. The cab interior...

The winch does add a bit. @Lostchain has a 2003 M1078 w/winch and his truck is 18,500 on the scales. Your truck is probably very similar. Yes you have coil-overs but his truck has cab air ride so probably a wash there. Rear diff probably weighs a bit more but were not talking about 1,000 lbs...

You ran it over the scales? That seems excessively heavy for a 1078. My truck is 21,950 with me and the dog and some gear in the habitat. The M1079 box weighs 3,360 lbs although I did pull about 700 lbs of steel plating out of mine prior to going over the scales.

Well the GVW of my 1079 is still 5.000lbs higher than it's curb weight. So even with the enclosure bringing the curb weight up to 21.5k vs 17.5k for the 1-78 it is rated for another 5k on top of that. GVW on my 1079 is 25,980

My 2008 M1079A1R has no noticeable "rock and roll" on the road. Not sure what you are experiencing exactly but mine is absolutely stable.
