[QUOTE="clemsonjeep, post: 663349, member: 6317"] Still looking for weight of a built set...but here's what I've got so far. I pulled these numbers from a weight thread on Pirate. Toy 8" front stock - 220lbs Toy 8" rear stock - 150lbs So let's say you've got a 4 link upper truss which is additional weight of around 10lbs. The leaf spring mounts and traction bar mount on the stock housing will work out to be about what shock and link mounts would be. The diff won't change much with a locker and any difference in shafts is probably negligible also. Most people upgrade brakes a little so we can throw another 10lbs at it for that. If you're running a front hoop with full hydro ram let's add another 10lbs worth of tubing and mounts. So that makes a front axle come out to around 250lbs. For the rear it's gonna get an upper link truss and link mounts so let's add 15lbs after taking away the weight of leaf spring perches and shock mounts. It'll lose drums and go with discs which might actually be close to the same weight. Again there won't be much change in the weight of the 3rd and axle shafts. So the rear is up to 165lbs. [/QUOTE]
