[QUOTE="wateka, post: 120881, member: 21519"] As a part of my 853 restoration process, I took it apart to repaint. Since it was in pieces, and all the hydraulic/engine parts had been removed, I was curious how much each component weighed. Using my Harbor Freight 1 ton gantry and a 2,200 pound crane scale I bought from Amazon, I got the below results. Rely on these results at your own peril - I paid $72 for the scale. Pics are below. [LIST] [*]Upper body: 805 pounds [*]Lower body: 501 pounds [*]Arms: 570 pounds [*]Bob-Tach: 171 pounds [*]Cab: 327 pounds [*]Engine and engine driven hydraulic/hydrostatic motors: 780 pounds [/LIST] Total: 3,154 pounds I did weigh the hydraulic/hydrostatic motors after removing them from the engine. They weigh 156 pounds. That gives an implied engine/starter/alternator/etc weight of 624 pounds (780-156) With an operating weight of 6,497 pounds, that implies the below items weigh 3,343 pounds (6,497-3,154): [LIST] [*]Drive components (gears/chains) and motors [*]Cooling components [*]Hydraulic cylinders, hoses, and tubings [*]Exhaust components [*]Tires/wheels/axles/bearings/races [*]Gearcases [*]Steering control sticks and associated frame [*]Fuel tank [*]Bucket [*]All liquids: Fuel/oil/coolant [*]Hardware, etc. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
