A vehicle rated at two tons is rated to carry two tons of payload weight - however, this includes the weight of passengers, fuel, and anything else not present on the vehicle when tare (empty) weight is measured. So, two tons, minus any additional weight (from passengers, fuel, etc).
weight should be over the axle,60% fore - 40% aft
Of course it will. You can put any bed from any truck on any other truck. A bed is a bed is a bed.
1400lbs is the most I've had in mine, and it was riding on the bumpstops, evenly loaded across the entire truckbed. ZQ8 Suspension.
i have had 1800 pounds of sack-crete in the bed
A half ton.
5,300 lbs.
The bed of a truck is the part in the very back some people put a cover over it the cover is a hard cover.
The S-10 pickup truck is considered a 1/4 ton pickup, so 500 lbs would be maximum payload to carry safely.
Because you use it to "pick up" things and put them in the bed of the truck.
1500 pounds or 3/4 ton
That will range from 1,400 to about 1,700 lbs depending on year and the exact model.
Direct bolt on. NO. You will have to modify the bed mounting brackets to put a 98 on a 2003 and then none of the body lines will match up and the truck will look REAL FUNNY.
