Then there are the bumper brackets, and they aren't too light themselves.

Why do you ask? It's kind of an odd question.

CEREKE IT HAS TO BE HEAVIER THAN THAT. the top piece is all steel. id say around 40-45lbs.

xplikt - because supposedly a 01-up bumper is about 20-25lbs lighter..so for us racers if we switch to a 01-up bumper its a great savings off the very front of the truck!

Get a fiberglass hood then, the hoods are kinda heavy. Or they at least feel that way cause they're so big. Putting a hood on is not a one person job.
