Re: anybody have an idea on cab weight
I can say a stripped cab is much lighter than I expected. I recruited three guys who could bench 1000 pounds between them. I took a rear corner, and I'm 5'11", 155 lbs. and a "senior". We lifted and all four busted a laugh.
Just guessing here, but seems close: Stripped cab is 300 lbs. Doors 45 lbs. each, door window & vent with regulator etc. is 32 lbs. per side, windshield 25 lbs., large rear window 15 lbs.

Re: anybody have an idea on cab weight
I am sitting here staring at my stripped cab, my buddy and I set it on sawhorses Saturday.
Had to pick it up half hunched over and crab walk it to the back of the frame, over the tires, then walk across the shop and set it down. We guessed 260-280 lbs. |

Re: anybody have an idea on cab weight
Could be that 260-280. It wasn't a struggle at all. I've heard a bed weighs more than a stripped cab, and IMO, that includes a short bed without tailgate.

Be careful and get extra help.
I thought I was in Invincible lifting heavy things My whole life. Weight lifting, working, etc. then at 48 and in great shape ruptured disc in Lower back. It will cripple the toughest out there. Careful! Mark
