It is crazy heavy. I didn't weigh it personally but when I picked it up at the freight company they weighed it at 235lbs. The "pallet" it was on was like a particle board and a couple 2x4 pieces, that MAYBE weighed 10lbs.

After mounting the RTE and an ARB there's no doubt in my mind RTE is twice as heavy. I was able to move the ARB around myself, but the RTE took anothe rset of hands struggling.

Honestly the freight company's scale coulda been a little heavy, but it's hard to doubt it.

Yeah, it was super heavy. I have the skid attachment too. I'll go synthetic line when I get a winch eventually.

IDK, maybe I should just get the HD OME lift in the front and MD OME in the back - its only 1.5" theoretically.

That sounds like a good plan
