[QUOTE="voodoo21, post: 13232025, member: 150791"] [b]Free weight savings[/b] First off let me say that what I did most of you won't and will consider it unsafe. Please Dont flame me on this, as I have been doing this to our cars from back during the Crawford performance days......Remove the front and rear bumpers & brackets. They provide very little support to your bumper covers. Now add to this the rear seat delete along with belts, bolts and brackets.....rear axle weights.....rear sub & amps....nice savings with nothing but time ......I will purchase a 1 piece drive shaft and steeda radiator support.....aluminum lower control arms......Oh and I did go on a diet and lost 55 pounds!!!!...As trivial as it seems, I got under the car with a zip wheel and cut off any studs that extended past the bolt......I know its ocd.....but I got bored. ETA: Just for the curious, the weight of the bumpers, foam, & brackets/bolts came out to 31 lbs. ETA: Went and weighed the car today.....certified scale at a local pilot.....3770 w/ half tank of fuel.......still looking for more free weight savings. [/QUOTE]
