I weighed the whole lot, radius arms (KAD), drumd (Minifins) shocks (GAZ) and all the mountings and brake pipes ect.

Now, I seem to remember wighing the subframe bars and it weighing 12Kgs (I might have remembered that wrong), but what do people think the whole thing weighs?

47Kgs or there abouts.

Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe.

Prizes go to Doodmiester and Jimmy, 46kgs.

That's with an anti-roll bar too.

If a standard one is 70 then I'm very happy.

Good stuff Wil.

So did you just grit your teeth and call KAD or did you have the arms 'lying around' ???

Quite a weight saving - very interested to know what a fully-dressed subby with iron drums actually weighs!

Pretty close there carl. Any chance you could give me Saturday nights lottery numbers at around 8:30?

Had the KAD arms last year actually Dave, We basically needed the ones we had re-conning so squeezed them into the budget.
