Restoring a Ford 3000

[Randy Walker]

Can anyone tell me the average weight of a Ford 3000? I am going to be moving it from my parents house to my house to work on restoring it and I want to make sure I take a big enough trailor. Any information would be appreciated.

tractor data lists it as #3700

Here are two sites for specs on a Ford 3000.

Did you ever get the numbers off the tractor?

If you're wanting to rebuild or just fix it up. You can purchase parts here at YTmag, www.fordexternal_link, and link_disallowed

No I have not gotten the numbers off yet, trying to get the tractor in a more friendly place so I can get to work.

The specifications sheet I have list the tractor weight at front axel 1600, rear axel at 2190. Total 3790 and does not list any difference between a diesel or gas.

I have been reading about tractors having weighted tires, the weight you have given me is that with or without weighted tires?

The tractors left the factory with nothing but air in the tires so those weights would not include any liquids in the tires.
