g-BODY front lower control arm weight.

[norbs]

I have weighed the g-body front lower control arms and they weigh in at 11.5 lbs each. Does anyone know what the stock lowers weigh? Now the fun begins to to pull out the lower balljoint without any damage.

Is this weight with ball joints and bushings?

the stockers don't weigh that much more than that- they are just a couple square feet of .100 or so sheetmetal that are stamped into shape.
say the stockers weigh 15 pounds- you are only saving 3.5 pounds total weight, with 1.75 pounds of unsprung weight saved.
