All said and done - the weight comparison is nearly a wash. Where the aluminum radiator is a bit lighter, I ended up using longer hoses (and more coolant). About the only weight savings came via the elimination of the "frame rail to frame rail" lower radiator mount for the Kubota. It weighed in at approx 4 pounds, but I've recently gained 4 pounds so even that isn't going anywhere!
