When I select mass properties I can't override the mass. It is greyed-out. How do I fix this?

I want to assign a mass to this whole gearbox as it is listed on the website and I would prefer not to go through and assign material to each part. However, most solutions related to this say I have to use the override checkbox but it is greyed out and won't let me select it. How can I fix this? Thank you.

    You can't override the mass for multiple selection (you have 4 parts selected in your image). Override the mass for each individual part or try to create a Composite part with these 4 parts and then override the mass property for the Composite part.
