I checked the parts manual and the cab assembly does not have the weight listed, Sorry!

I'm sure someone that had handled one will be able to at least estimate the weight.

Good Luck!

I"m guessing around 350-450. Me and my buddy were able to lift mine off with np, still had doors and steering.

You could always set a touque wrech to about 100 and get on bolt on the front corner, turn it up or down and what ever it takes to click the wrench and lift that corner just x4 it.

Kinda like weighing a tractor trailer.

one completly stripped is still pretty heavy.. two people can move it but its not light.. The doors will add a ton of weight as well because I think they are pretty heavy. Lots of steel I would guess the 350-450 would be close..

I've always been told right at 500 gutted but with front and rear glass.

Do we win a prize if we are the closest?? ha..I think it will be closer to 500 than 450.

no way near 500lbs gutted... I just propped mine up on the frame by myself and have lifted it with 4 guys totally off the frame, glass does weight a little though. I would guess 350-400 max gutted. With doors then 500+
