Question Ever weighed your Jeep?

I just used a scale today to turn in my engine block for scrap... my Jeep weighs 3490 with a 1/2 tank of gas. That is with 31's and aluminum wheels.

I thought it might be lighter but I guess that's not too bad.

It's that light cause you took the engine out.

factory curb weight of a 4x4 xj 3055lbs - 3400lbs depending on package

if your built wheeler weighs under 4000lbs you should be a very happy man

I'd keep an engine block for decoration

My bone stock '90 Limited with 3/4 tank of gas and nobody inside rolls across the scales at exactly 3500 lbs. Published curb weights always seem low compared to actual scale weighs regardless of what vehicle.
