MG TD TF 1500 - TD front end weight?

Does anyone know the weight on the front tires of a stock TD? I'd like to finish installing the MGB sway bar setup that I adapted, but I need to know how much weight to put on the frame since my engine, radiator, etc. are not yet on board. I need to have the weight correct before drilling the holes for the brackets. Are there other issues I should be considering?

Thanks,

You mean that OF and ON aren't the same word? At least I can blame it on a senior moment. Sorry about that. Bud

mg td has a 50/50 weight distribution. Total weight is 2015 lbs. so 1007 lbs. on the front tires.
