Absolutely no way that trans weighs 5-600 pounds.....I can lift the auto and manual and load it into a bed, have done it a few times and have one of each in my Junker bed.

I've done 3 clutches by myself (did use the lift ot put it into place, but was easy to muscle around)....I'd guess about 250lbs, give or take 100lbs.....

You can do a manual w/ your arms, no problems. Wouldnt recommend that w/ an auto, atleast not without a helper
