How much does a bed weigh?

[M1075]

Anybody know how much a M35 deuce bed weighs? What about one from an M36?

 

[Recovry4x4]

By means of listed weight comparisons of cargos vs cab/chassis trucks I come up with the following;
M35A2 standard bed 1850#
M36A2 bed 3500#

Used TM 43-0001-31 for weights. A deuce manual might have more accurate weights.
You're mileage may vary!

Hey 1075,
When we set my M35 bed back on the baby HEMTT we had a Martin-Decker crane scale hung on the boom. The bare bed with tailgate came in at 1340# according to the readout.

Legal disclaimer: I can only vouch for the weight of MY bed, slightly higher west of the Rockies, individual results may vary, void where prohibited by law.
Can send pics of the bed in the air with a close-up of the scale face for verification, iffens you like.
