Weight of the rear axle case?

Post by Grobin »

Anyone know the weight of an axle case for a '69 traveller.
Looking at courier services for the part but they all require weight and item packaged or
palleted.

It should be less than 40kg/90 pounds and you should be ok, but not sure if that is complete with drums and all, I think you need to ship it palleted

A ‘59 Elva Courier/ Riley 1.5 is about 60lbs minus brake drums if my old bathroom scale is correct. 55” long x 12” deep. A stripped out Sprite housing with backing plates and shoes but no hubs, axles, or diff is about 35lbs.
