Transmission Weight?

Post by projectmx »

I was wondering if anyone had a rough estimate on the weight of the manual trans? I am packing mine up to ship and was hoping for a close estimate before I try to take it down to ups to ship.

my friend and i lifted it pretty easily so it seems around 75 or so pounds.. but i want to be sure.. is it close to that? is it definently under 150? any help would be great

about 70 - 80 lbs maybe.... it makes a big difference when you put on coil overs ... on mine i had to lift up the tranny side alot more so that is could be evenly slammed..... thats totaly off the topic but ... yea
