Bob Grundy Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Would anyone know the weight of a L60, less radiators ? I may have to collect one and do not want to overload my vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Would anyone know the weight of a L60, less radiators ?I may have to collect one and do not want to overload my vehicle.

Meteor mark 4B Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 In Bob Griffin's book it states: Power pack weight, which would include rads I guess, 2743kg/6048lbs about 2.7 tons. Overall laden weight of the tank is 64.9 tonnes, 54 imperial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steveo578 Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 The rads, fluid and filters on a RR Condor (Challenger Kalhed chieftain upgrade package) weighs about 750kg I would think the L60 Rads etc would be similar so a dry L60 should be about 2000kg. Meteor mark 4B In Bob Griffin's book it states: Power pack weight, which would include rads I guess, 2743kg/6048lbs about 2.7 tons. Overall laden weight of the tank is 64.9 tonnes, 54 imperial. 64.9 tonnes x 0.98 = 63.6 UK imperial tons (SI unit multiple to convert metric tonnes 2205lbs into UK imperial tons 2240lbs):cheesy: Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andym Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I may have to collect one and do not want to overload my vehicle. Would that be from somewhere near Bude, out of interest? :-) Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Grundy Posted March 19, 2011 Author Share Posted March 19, 2011 No, not near Bude. However yet again, due to the odd people that populate this planet, the job was off...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
