How much does the bed on the M-37 weigh? Can 4 guys pick it up?

Not sure of the weight, but yes...4 stout guys can pick it up.

My son and I shimed ours up to fit 2x6 skids underneath and then slid the box off the back of the truck. We were able to stand it on its tailgate end and then roll a flat trailer to it. We then rotated down onto the trailer to move it around.

We had 4 guys lift it at the paint shop and I remember my brain flashing a "marble alert" - its still a load with 4.

It's only bolted together.....a lot lighter minus the sides...

Three of us strapped it in my Ram, it took a co worker, my wife and a friend of hers to get it out. I toke apart my donor bed, now working on the original bed. Slow going by myself!
