AE86 rear axle weight

[megabob]

Hi all,
Does anyone know the weight of an AE86 complete rear axle (LSD, driveshafts, etc).
Cheers

I know for a fact that the complete diffhousing with a TRD LSD weighs 21kg. And the axle itself doesn't bearly weigh anything, can easily pick it up with one hand. As for the rest I have no clue, could maybe weigh it next time I'm down there.

well its for a rear axle that I'm arranging a courier for. needs picking up from Ireland and delivering to the UK

Ok so I was down at the garage today, but forgot to bring a scale so I had to use the highly accurate method of lifting stuff with my hand and guess. Given that I know what the diffhousing weighs I'd say that a complete rear axle weighs around 50kg.

I'd expect it to be more than 100 kg's.. I can lift a 4age with ancillaries by myself.. a rear axle is heavier than that for sure.

Empty axle is like 30-40kg, heavy but liftable.
shafts, bearings, diff, brakes.. i think it puts it to 70-80kg area.

I would say more like 50-60Kg lifted a spare one I have today.

diff and pumpkin: 18.6kg (OEM, no oil)
axle housing: 15.9kg
axles: 11.5kg (TOTAL for 2 early axles)
rear caliper: 3.1kg
rear disc: 4.2kg
swaybar: 2kg

Total between 47kg and 63.6kg

I miscalculated, forgot that shafts were still in axle when i took it for sandblastnig .

Thanks NoHachi! I guess I wasn't too far off with my amazing arms of measurement
