from my experience they all seem to weigh about the same, so far ive had a 9-bolt disc, 10-bolt drum, and a 10-bolt disc, all of these were from 87 IROC`s so they had iron drums, or iron calipers, id guess somewhere in the neighborhood of 175-200lbs,
As for the later model rears with either aluminum drums or aluminum calipers, id guess they would be 15-20lbs lighter, maybe?
this weekend when i go to pick up my rear end from the machine shop ill try to get it weighed.
