I'm getting a vx lsd diff and two half shafts + cv joins etc.. freighted but I need to know how much they weigh so I can get an estimate price to pay the seller.

Not sure if theres this info around the internet tried finding it but no luck :(

any estimates welcome :)

Thanks.

I've picked a couple up and their back breakers.

I had to put a centre in a 9" by myself once..that's a job I never want to do again :errr:

From memory the VZ SS one I had shipped to Sydney by www.smartsend.com.au was 42kg including pallet and strong cardboad box. The VE one I had shipped here from Adelaide was a bit lighter (35kg all up from memory with slightly smaller pallet).
