Sheet metal weight
|
Worth it?
|
How much weight savings would there be having all aluminum fenders hood and nose cone on a 30/40 series Deere as opposed to factory tin work and fenders? 50-75lbs? And is there anyone doing it other than ace chassis? Thank you. |

al. weighs about 1/3 rd of steel, however many times the supports, strength needed to be equal in function, it may be only half. Weigh the steel stuff first,it it's more than you thought, maybe.However for every gain or plus in Life, there is an equal and opposite negative. |
