Default What's the weight of stock radiator support?

That's what my question is. I remember reading about it in the magazine, and if I'm not mistaken it was 40+ plus, but I wanted to make sure. At that time I didn't pay close attention to it because it eliminated the sway bar, but not with steeda's radiator support I consider buying one. Thanks in advance

I'm not sure about the radiator support by itself, but I dropped 30+ lbs. by getting rid of the radiator support and sway bar and replacing it with a granatelli radiator support.

I'll be getting this mod pretty soon then. 9 pounds doesnt seem like much but it's only 180 which is 20 per pound lost. Compared to BMR's K-member+a-arms combo for 830 which drops the weight by 34 lbs and is 24 something per pound lost.
