Weight Disclosures

[23OBX2.7]

Would be nice if various vendors disclose the weights. From what I can see most of it is pretty agrarian and heavy in a world where AHSS and CF has many applications where low grade thick steel currently used and sold at ridiculous prices.

I was shocked that the entire Ford Racing B&C Bow brace kit incl packaging only weighs 11lb.

Would be nice to get an AHSS under body that weighs 65 lb, and bumpers that weigh 50 each incl OE brace.

I'll be keeping my plastic bumpers....

@23OBX2.7 I agree. I was thinking about replacing my plastic front bumper but concerned about adding weight to my ‘23 2dr Big Bend 2.3 which is apparently one of the lightest out there. Emailed a company, Extreme Terrain I think, about the weight of a front bumper and they never responded. I’m thinking many of these custom parts add a lot of weight.

The prices are high but the parts very cheap to make with very cheap steel plate so they are heavy.

I'm sticking with my plastic bumper ...someone should make a macho plastic bumper it's not like they are used to push cars or animals out of the way haha.
