https://www.nloc.net/vbforum/showth...S-Swap?p=2182119&highlight=weight#post2182119 this is the page where his truck's weight loss with his crown vic swap was mentioned. it was about 100#. post number 424.
I think on his truck that's a good number, but I'm not sure his truck is representative of what most should expect. He did a lot of things that most people aren't going to do that add weight. Fully boxing the frame, adding heim joints instead of rubber bushings, the boxed rear LCA mounts, etc. All of that adds up. It may be partially offset by the Wilwood brakes and tubular arms. Everything he did is worth more than the weight it added, but it's still weight. Earlier in the thread he weighed everything he removed and the entire CV setup and was pretty close to a 200lb difference before doing any of the extra stuff.
