WahooSteeler Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 can anybody tell me what a 4.0 weighs for shipping purposes? For worst case scenarios, assume full engine and harness etc., most likely less the alternator and pwr steering pump. thanks..........
johngus Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 If memory serves correct its about 750lbs fully loaded.
Geonovast Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 Is "fully loaded" including pulleys, manifolds, and flywheel? An automatic one would weigh a little less.
DirtyComanche Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 500~ bare engine, or about 525 mostly there. Or in that area. Apparently.
WahooSteeler Posted January 13, 2008 Author Posted January 13, 2008 ok, we've got a 50% difference in the posts so far. can anyone else "weigh in" on this?

Geonovast Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 I'll stick a fish scale on the cherry picker next time I pick one up.
StevenH Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 Advance Adapters says it is 540lbs but doesn't specify if that is everything bolted to it or not. I would assume that it is.
Wildman Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 I'll second Dirty's weight. I have a striped long block in the shop, and I can't pick it up :eek: But for shipping, that varies too on what you ship it with, weight of the pallet, or box needs to be added.
WahooSteeler Posted January 13, 2008 Author Posted January 13, 2008 Dirty wins the prize, a free Comanche Club magnet! :brows:

skimore11 Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 I paid $120 round trip on shipping for my new engine are return of the core. I am sure that is the agreed rate cause of volume but it was through USF Reddaway and they picked up and dropped of with a lift gate. But now that I look its a local company. Anyways look outside the brown/Fed.
WahooSteeler Posted January 14, 2008 Author Posted January 14, 2008 if i buy this engine, it's only about 300 miles away, so i don't think it will be too bad, and the price on the engine is cheap enough to offset some of the shipping if it gets $$
