That model Bobcat isn’t heavy at all. Maybe around 3 tons and I’m pretty sure the same size CASE skid loader weighs more. I know for fact that my work truck can lift one off the ground because the smaller Bobs are (or used to be) a twitchy pain in the ass to operate (can’t stand the foot controls in bobcats). Lift arms and bucket are gone in the pic and the hydraulic rams are off too, that takes a significant amount of weight off as well.

Something tells me the LS swap is for fun and not function anyway. Regardless, I want to play with that thing.
