Adding a bit to Dave's comment, the only 'advantage' to truck weighting
would probably be to keep the centre of gravity low.
I used it on occasion in my HO days when the car was too light and it was
not possible to open up.
I would wrap solder around the axle(s). I made do with the regular flux
type (in stock) but solid would have been heavier. I'd sometimes paint it
black to hide it somewhat.
