MGB axle weight
This subject comes up every now and then but today I had the opportunity to weigh a 1977 MGB axle with some accurate scales and the weights are as follows;
Axle complete with brakes, springs, ant sway bar 225 lbs Axle complete with brakes but no other bolt on parts is 163 lbs At the same time I weighed a MGB overdrive gearbox and the weight was 111 lbs with oil, gear lever throw out arm and bearing but no slave cylinder or mounting bracket |

Re: MGB axle weight
Some day maybe some bright young fella will write software for a spider that will go get all these weights and dimensions that we've posted over the years and stack them up in one place, wouldn't that be nice?
