Bed weight

[Dixie]

Quick and random question: if I were you unbolt the bed of the truck (short bed) how heavy would you say it would be? 300lbs? Easy enough for a two-person lift to move? I plan on doing a paint job.

This post has been split off from the discussion of Knucklehead97's death wobble because it has nothing to do with that topic of discussion.

Guess I can’t be shy about posting topics, thanks for the confidence boost!

It's easy enough for a two man lift.

 

I removed and replaced my long bed, recently, by myself.  It was difficult and would have been much easier with a second set of hands.

Perfect, thanks so much! Was afraid I’d need a shop crane or something. Glad I don’t!

Yeah, with two people it's not bad. Take the tailgate off first to make it a little lighter.

Thanks for the tip! Can’t wait to get this paint job underway
