Default some weight questions

Anyone have a rough estimate or exact weight of the following?

1. moser 9" with truetrac and 4channel compared to stock 10bolt (~85lbs)
2. tnt f1 wet kit - 10lb nitrous bottle, brackets, nitrous lines, powerring, solenoids, wiring etc. (maybe someone can just weigh their kit before they put it on). (~35lbs)
3. 15x10 with 26x10 mt's and 15x3.5 with 165r15 tires vs stock 17" zr1's with 275 tires. (~80lbs)
4. about how much competition engineering subframe connectors or the like weigh? (~10lbs???)
5. how much a steel hd driveshaft weighs over the stock alumn (~10lbs)


rough guestimates are fine, exact weights are appreciated
