Greetings to all

To be specific a 1953 d4 7u with factory roll over protection and sweeps, a straight blade and a winch. Im wondering how close someone can come to the accurate weight. I have a trailer that can handle a payload of 13,000 and change. I dont think that is going to be enough. Probably close though. Thank you all for reading. Clyde. I'm brand new to the forum . I collect vintage wood and metal working machinery. I have an Hd 5 tractor shovel, Mpls. moline M670 and other numerous pieces of junk. All endearing I'm sure. Probably will own this d4 7u b 4 it is over. Thanks once again

Bare tractor, 10,970lbs from performance handbook 13. You will need to add the canopy, blade, winch etc to that. I would suggest it may go more than your 13,000lbs.
