Holding them up to the factory axles, they look the same length. As far as weight goes, I can man handle the manual myself. Meaning I picked it up and stabbed it on the motor while it was hanging on the hoist and hand my buddy thread the bellhousing bolts in place. Me and the same friend have problems picking up the automatic half full of fluid (whatever didn't dump out when we pulled the tranny) and no torque converter.

I just went and jumped on the strut tower while he was watching the axles, and they don't move. I'm going to top it off with fluid shortly and see if any leaks.
