I've heard the 5360 weights 700 pounds. That could be wrong, but it
has to be at least 500 pounds.
I have no clue how much the S/34 actually weighed - the woman I picked it
up from said that she was pretty sure the shipping label from her original
receipt of it (In 1980, for $188,000 no less) said 800lbs. Given the
amount of fun we had with the ratchet winches, and how much my half-ton
truck sank in the rear end, I believe it's plausible. ;)

Of course, not everyone is willing to redneck picking up something
like
that. Then again, I can't imagine it has that much value since no
one here
is willing to take it back off my hands ;)
All things are possible, with a bit of imagination.
