How about a new PINNED thread with weights of components n stuff of our Subes?

 

Could be handy for estimating postage costs of bits between members, or putting our beasts on a diet

 

If the powers that be think is a good idea to try run with please pin it

 

Digital accuracy from the bathroom scales or the kitchen instruments will do.

 

Thinking if I remove the rear wheel drive gear while tail shaft is out could rip 45 kg off the Brumbys arse, errr..rump

 

 

I can start off with an EA81 Sanden AC compressor and steel [not cast] mounting bracket  - 10.2 kg

 

3.7:1 diff from EA81 -- 22.00 kg

 

EA81 rear diff mount 1.2 kg

 

EA81 moustache bar...3.7 kg

 

EA81 rear half shafts ...4.6 kg each

 

EA81 4 sp tail shaft ....TBA

 

EA81 4WD manual box  ....42 kg

 

EA82 4WD man 5 speed [could be lies here] ...56 kg

 

EA82 single range AWD 5 speed 52 kg

 

EA82 4WD [or FWD turbo}  flywheel was it 12 kg ?

 

EA81 engine sans flywheel, alternator - about 66kg

 

EJ22 engine sans flywheel - bloody double I reckon !

EA81 alternator 4 kg

 

EA81 starter motor 4 kg

EA81 man tail shaft 5.7 kg

For what it's worth, the ea81 3at 4wd tailshaft will weigh exactly the same as manual.

EA81 wagon and brumby/brat tailshafts are different sizes. Brumby/brat is ~10cm longer than that of the wagon and hatch.

 

Probably not that much different in weight between the two but it could be the difference between one postage category and another...

 

Cheers

With a wheelbase of 2445mm for MY EA81 Touring Wagon and 2440mm for 1986 Brumby EA81 i see just 5mm difference using Fed dept transports data spec sheets. Mate, Freddo, girls use cm to make dresses. We use mm in here right?!
