Weight of front beam


Any one knows how much a K&L pin beam would roughly weigh including drums?

Like mitty, I don't know, but I almost pop a vein in a straight lift on a Bay kombi beam disc to disc, so maybe 80-100kg.
Beetle is sure to be lighter than that.

BLOODY Heavy.... Yipes..


Bloody heavy I would say..
they are not too bad with every thing uninstalled.. but with the brakes & hubs etc... I don't know if I could carry one...
I always pull the hubs etc off them first to install them.. or uninstall them..
