That's all it weighs! That's gotta be wrong, I haven't turned into that much of a wuss.
Yes, complete...
The spare tailgate I bought for my Suburban feels like it weighed 400 lbs when I had to lug it 100+ feet to my truck...
I want to say the same thing.
When I took off the helper springs it took some effort to close the tailgate and I can bench 250lbs easy

With a power window or hand crank?
123# sounds reasonable. I can carry mine, but it's not fun.

I had to remove and carry one about 40 yards. Did not know what I was in for. Then I moved and had to carry it again. I was more aware the 2nd time but it was still a heavy SOB. The awkward factor doesn't help
Power rear window
Mine is off and sitting in the garage........It has power window with the glass still in it.......I'll go weigh it and see who is close to actual weight. Be right back.
EDIT: Including hinges and wiring, mine weighs 115 lbs.

Me too. My helper springs are off and I can barely close it.
