Does anyone know how much a 1973 ford ½ ton 4wd (1 speed dana 21 t-case) weighs? it has a four speed manual and is standard cab long wheel base with 390. Im not asking GVW, i just wanna know how much it weighs unloaded.

they vary, I'd say approx. 4500 lbs.

My Effie weighs in at about 4400 lbs - with a 460 BB engine (1974) and it's a 2 wheel drive model with C-6. Maybe that'll help some...

Take it to a truck stop and weigh on their scales, or to a highway weigh station (free), or a commercial place like a recycling center, grain elevator, etc that has a scale.
