    There are all kinds of extraneous brackets and trinkets to pull off but they might compromised safety so in the name of CYA please ask G and not me.

    Get on the floor and look under the truck and ask yourself in a tiny voice "Do I really need that?"....

    strip the frame of undercoating, you can also swiss cut the frame. Fab up new cross members with aluminum or Titanium, swap seats out for light weight race seats, Gut the tailgate, loose the inner front fenders, loose rear brakes and parking brake set up. I'm sure there is more, how far you wanna go is the question.

    or if you want serious weight reduction get another vehicle
    2002 Lightning - GT headed 5.5Litre w/ Twin 7665s
    2002 Silverado - 427Lsx w/ Twin gt4202s
    2010 Silverado crewcab Z71 - 5.3litre w/ procharger
    2000 Wrangler - 5.3litre with some stance
    2014 Xsport- 3.5 Eco boost
    412 Motorsports

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference
