Does anybody know the average weight of a hood for a thirdgen t/a?
I am in the process to replace my hood, but I have no assistance because my work schedule makes it impossible to determaine free time ,so I have to go out to junkyard and pull the damn thing my self and load it on to the roof of my car with cargo net and a protective pad, any info as to what a hood weighs would be greatly appreciated

i just grab a hold of one edge of hood and grab hold of other edge of hood and either flip up on my head and carry like that or kinda carry it at an angle, but then i have a really really wide arm span but am sknny only 140lbs so,. kinda tricky sorta, you get good at maneuvering hoods after youve done it so many times with all kinds of vehicles over time span of several years,
these third gen hoods do seem a hell of alot heavier because of how big they are.
good luck
