The spec booklet for 1946 shows a 'cab and chassis' as 4640 lbs.
With cab, platform and stock racks it's 5829 lbs.
Gives you some idea I hope.

p.s. That's for a 160 in. wheelbase 2 ton

I have a '53 6400 two ton dump bed with removable sides. The bed is 14' long and it weighs right around 7,000 lbs without the sides installed.
Hope this helps.
