rear axle weights How much does the stock 10 bolt ***'y weigh without brake discs and calipers?
As opposed to non-aluminum 9" vs. 12 bolt? I'm hearing that the s60 weighs about 250# w/o brakes (it's going in Friday nite). I'll weigh each then, as I need new shox.

10-bolt fully loaded 176 lbs
12-bolt fully loaded 196 lbs-Moser
I don't know how off my scale was, but you get the idea. Sorry didn't weigh them without brakes etc..
Dana's are big mothers
I bet it does weigh 250

EPP did a 9 inch install for a customer that actually ended up being lighter than the 12 bolt the customer previously had installed. Check thier sight out, i cant find the particular page or i would post it but i remeber reading it.
Scott with driveline also informed me that he could make a 9 inch lighter than any of the other f-body rears. (besides the weak *** 10 bolt)

60 installed It's in. EZ bolt in. Only drove it ~ 5 miles. Dead quiet so far. No ABS lkights and no leaks. 10 bolt weighs 140# w/o brakes. 60 weighs a beefy 210# with (net 200#). I got a pile of 10 bolt cores if anyone wants one.. 
Did that weight include discs?? I'm pretty sure this scale is on.
