How much does a 14 bolt F.F. weigh?
I'm looking at buying one next weekend for little to nothing ($10) but I need to know how much it weighs so I can figure out the best way to load it.I've managed to get a complete 12 bolt loaded in the back of my truck alone but the 14 bolt looks a little heavier!!

Re: How much does a 14 bolt F.F. weigh?
Well,the guy has a tractor with a bucket on the front so I guess the loading will be simple enough.I'll probably just use the engine lift to lift it out of the truck...Now I just need to get a DANA 60 front for the same price
