beepbeepmyredjeep Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 You might be a redneck if a local radio station holds a "Royal Redneck Wedding"... I'm still deciding if I should attend... http://www.1069theeagle.com/page.php?page_id=65939 Bonus redneck points if you actually get married there.

Sir Sam Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 My favorite DIY swimming pool Yup, seen things like that before. Good execution on his part with the plastic. better than the tarps and newspaper you typically see. I would just like to point out that water is very heavy and even under static load can damage suspension on a truck like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btm24 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Water only where's 8.35 lbs per gal. It looks like a long bed so what thats a 8' bed? Thats not even 6,000 pounds of water (8' long, 6' wide and 2' high). And all full sized trucks are made to be more like trucks, haul more and tow more then mid sized trucks, so I don't think that filling up the bed with water would be that bad on the suspension. Thats just the math, I also have had experience with this at least once a summer since I was a small kid and ive never heard of it being to much of a load for a truck to handle. Which by the way its amazing last time my buddy had a water jet in his :D Brandon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which by the way its amazing last time my buddy had a water jet in his :D Brandon Assuming a rough estimate of an 8 foot long bed, 5 feet wide, and 2 feet tall, that calculates out to be 80 square feet. In 80 square feet, you can put 597.6 gallons of water in a tank of that size. We'll round it up to 600 for sanity's sake. Roughly calculated, that if you had 600 gallons of water in a truck bed, you would net 5010 lbs. Judging by the bodystyle and the interior of the truck I can see, it is a '92-'96 Ford F-series truck. Being that I don't see towing mirrors, I will also assume that it is a plain jane F-150. To benifit the best, assuming that the greatest towing/payload was reached at the end of the build cycle, we will assume that this truck is a 1996 Ford F-150. According to the F150forum.com, the '96 F150 with the biggest V8 (5.8L), has this: GAWR: Front - 3275, Rear - 3777 GVWR: 6250 Stating that the axles can only support 3275, and 3777 respectively. The TOTAL on the truck is 6250. Being that you can only carry the GVWR, thats 6250. So take the 6250, subtract the 5010 lbs of water, and your F150 better weigh less than 1240 lbs. Which it doesn't. That much water, in that truck, or in any truck for the most part, is a very taxing thing on that vehicle. Yes, water only weighs (where's) 8.35 lbs per gallon, but, when you have 600 gallons, it starts adding up. Don't even get me started on how the sloshing 5010 lbs would affect the vehicle on the road.

So, 2505 lbs of water. :brows: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
