Any idea roughly what a bulkhead weighs with steering column and windscreen.

Trying to work out what my defender 90 body will weigh when I lift it off

best answer i can give is LOTS!

i bought a part stripped bulkhead, no screen but with dash and peddle boxes and heater matrix, took 3 of us to lift it out the back of my fender.

I'd say 50-60kg, series bulkhead and dash can be lifted by one person

yeah id say no more than 80kg... two of us comfortably lifted n fitted mine with column, dash n heater in place but no screen and my helper was my 14 year old lad so not a struggle

cheers steve

Seeing as my bulkhead is still sitting in the garage loose I thought I'd sit it on the scales. Its from a standard '84 n/a diesel but I'd say not much different to other models.

Surprisingly it weighs in at just 33Kg.

Feels alot more but I think thats just because it is such an awkward shape...

Hope that helps.
