I know I'm a little late with this, but, I have a tailgate for my '66 that I filled the top half of it with lead shot. This added about 80 lbs. to it. Everything has to be sealed up tight, though, or the shot will leak out. I don't run this gate anymore, as I have worked on the suspension more and have it hooking w/o it. It does make a difference, though.
