Hay Adam,

I guess it's around 10 kg,but am not sure.
I got one for my escossie,because it was bend,but if you want to use it for the escossie
it does not fit.
Myn was for the 7,5" 2wd diff,and the escoss has 7" diff,and the piveting points from
the rear axle crossmembers were not strengtend.
It was a complete surprise to me that is was so different to the original one

Good luck,

Fran,
