I won a complete TPU on GL, question: how much does the electric version of the pump unit weigh?, and what is the Manual#

The two 600 gallon skid tanks area little over 400lbs each empty, but I have no idea how much the pump unit weighs.....

My dilema is:

Take the M1008 to recover the TPU plus the M105 trailer I won, put 1 tank in the trailer, 1 tank and the pump unit in the 1008, and tow it all back to Las Cruces (280 Miles one way) or drive the Deuce......

M105 2300lbs or so
2 600 gal. tanks 800lbs or so, 3100 lbs so far....
Electric TPU pump unit ?????

Found it!!!!

T-pub.com,

Manual :
TM5-4930-230-13

600 gal tank: 525lbs.
Pump unit: 765lbs.

So, is roughly 4100 pounds too much for a M1008 to handle?

2825 Towed

I have a thread in the trailer section as well, but I'll ask it here,

Was this pump unit and 1 tank ever mounted on a M353 trailer?
