I changed my 722.6 recently...the box weighs 80kgs! (I needed to weigh the old one to get a shipping price) .....it is heavy and, using a ramp, it took 3 of us to lift the box + torque converter back up to the engine.
Tip.....remove the box only first and then the torque converter but then replace the box and TC together (This ensures that the two prongs on the tc are located properly in the transmission front pump and also eliminates the risk of damaging the TC seal)
