    Speaking of weight. I found this interesting. Check out how the weight of removing an A/C will affect the weight of the front and rear axle. Also notice how removing a 8 lbs Stereo will cut 6 lbs from the front axle and 2 lbs from the rear but cutting the weight of removing outside mirrors only affects the front axle weight.
