ROGUE TROOPER Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Standard RRC Handbrake drum setup or the x-eng disk brake setup? I have put the RRC on a diet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBMUD Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Original handbrake is heavier by a substantial margin. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 ^^^ I agree, the drum is much heaveir than the complete X-brake kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FridgeFreezer Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 I wouldn't care if it weighed twice as much, being able to stop the vehicle on a hill is kinda useful, no matter how little it may weigh it'll hurt if it rolls over the top of you!

white90 Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 IIRC 5kg difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonr Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 4.7kg - to be precise! Slightly more on a pre-300tdi if you take the cable/push-rod bracket off the side of the transfer box. Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmgemini Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I did weigh mine. Yes it was nearly 5gk. What I didn't do was measure the weight of the disc only against the drum only. Anybody done that........ By the way. Not having that drum to turn is as good as a lightened flywheel mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
