Mine weighs in close to 5000 lbs. The drivetrain is heavy though and there is a lot of extra metal on it for the bumpers, cage, rockers, etc.

I had to weigh my '66 Roadster in order to register it here in Calif. Took it to a CAT scale and here's what it came in at:

Front Axle 1880 lb
Rear Axle 1260 lb

Total 3140 lb

Stock bronco, stock sized tires. Dana 30 front, 3-speed RAT, 289 engine.

You got the bigger V8 in your F150, if so should be fine? Just don't expect to keep up with the oil burners.

my 99 F350 supercab diesel, 24 goose neeck trailer, 66 trail rig and 67 half cab wieghed in at a little over 24,000lbs if that helps any. My truck, single tag along trailer and trail rig weighed in at 14,000. The truck weighs 7,000 empty so I'm guessing the trail rig weighs about 4,000-4,500. HTH

I was around 5100, but I redid my cage and took a lot of spare parts out, I think I am below 5k now.
