I was really impressed when a guy about 6'-10" bought it from me, showed up with a pickup truck, refused my offer to help him load it, grabbed the entire rear with two hands, curled it, ducked under my garage door on the way out, and put it in his truck reaching over the tailgate.

Good story Injuneer! I took mine out about the same way that you did. I bench pressed mine out by myself. Thanks for the good rough number on the weight guys. That's about what I thought it was.

Injuneer, I just read a post that you mad a while back about cutting the bump stop brackets in the rear fenderwells. Your picture helped a lot, Thanks.
