What is the Weight of the Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series Tailgate
Question:
What is the weight of your light tailgate for 5th wheel? None of them have a weight and I think is very important since many of us are just trying to decrease trucks payload.

Expert Reply:
The Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series # VGD-10-4000 weighs roughly 32-lbs.
It should be noted that this tailgate isn't necessarily going to increase what the truck's payload much, if at all, but they're instead designed to reduce the damage that might otherwise occur when towing a 5th wheel trailer with a pin box that hangs close to the tailgate. These tailgates also reduce drag that ultimately will help improve gas mileage.
