so with your other thread taken into consideration, 537kg from sucking air and fuel to spinning tailshafts, lot less than what I would have thought for these things...

not bad i agree.
put the whole vehicle on the scales at the tip and it spat out 2.1 T for a SWB without much in it and 70L of juice. So the body and chassis and diffs must be fairly substantial to make up the difference.

the body weighs heaps! I have a bare chassis with just engine/transmission/links/springs/axles/tyres in it and it is light as. can push it around with one hand.
