Re: weight estimate
It takes everything I got these days to pick up a th350 or a np205 by themselves.
When I installed a th350/np205 I had myself and two other grown men helping. We didn't bother trying to move it manually. It was bolted together on the ground. We used a cherry picker to set it on a tranny jack. Then the tranny jack to get the assembly in the truck. If your looking for a ship weight I wouldn't want to be the UPS or Fedex guy that has to work with it.

Enough that you'll need a wheelbarrow to carry your testicles after you lift them.

Re: weight estimate
funny stuff!
the reason I'm asking is I'm considering having a turbo 350 mated to an NP205 crated and shipped to me with a truck company.
