Still have a stock Ford frame, A steel body with reinforcements for the lift (1800# plus) and the front plate on the weight box was 840# by itself.
I am not convinced a tube frame is the way to go. I've seen too many break and when they flex, they flex bad. We will drop 1500# going to a fiberglass body and we replaced the front 1.5" plate with 1/4" plate so will drop another 700# there. Hoping to have 300# of movable weight for the rest of this season and then put another 1500# up front with the fiberglass body next year.
We are planning on being at Bowling Green.
