i would have some help getting it in, just incase you dont have to drag it across your carpet, and run the risk of nicking the paint,

and yeah i would say somehwhere around 100lbs. i can carry one around but lifting it in the back of my car would be a risky thing i wouldnt risk.

good luck

if its a 3ch and you need 4ch your in luck, just grind the outter flanges and re use your axles, if its a 4ch and you need 3ch your screwed lol.

but my blown up rear end is in san luis, just need new gears, its both a 3 ch and 4ch, if that makes sense, it can be both with no modification, ive already done it. im sure if your willing to make the drive my buddy will load it up for you, its got a bad *** dif cover too, this of course is if the 1 down here is 4ch and you need a 3, let me know

How long should it take for me to swap my rear out for this one? I know you've done a few

well any chance you know the year the drivetrain came out of and maybe the trans as well, that would give us a pretty good guess on what it is

um, when i had a lift i had it done start to finish car on the ground and driving in 2.5 hrs, but normally by myself and on the floor, you can expect to be there for about 5 hrs or so.

oh and your gonna need a c clamp to get the 4ch axles out, clamp the axle to the back of the brakes as tightly as possible and try getting the c clip out. and vise versa to put it in, the toner ring makes pulling the axles a little more tricky then the 3ch. dont be afraid to use force to push the axle in far enough to get the clip

amazing car you have there. You should post a writeup in the western section with pictures and some info. I have always thought an lsx swap in one of those woulb be cool. Gotta love no emissions and light weight.
