Sorry I dont know exactly

A single cab LN65 cab with everything stripped can be man handled by 3 blokes (2 at back, 1 at front), 4 is prefferable though (2 front, 2 middleish). 2 can move it, but lifting it off would not be likely (unless the people are built like a tank).
Wheeling on completely wicked angles, without even looking stable.

Ferrit off here pulled the cab of his dual cab hilux when fitting his turbo motor, flick him a pm. I'm pretty sure the thing was still f~ing heavy even when it was stripped!

i did my LN65 cab with a big mate and my missus, it was real light, we then tried to do my suzuki cab and found it was twice as heavy.
We had the mrs on the front and a steel bar underneath the middle with one of us on each side. Wouldnt attempt it without the bar tho
