Unfortunately, Vol 4 of the AEDB design record that gives cab and chassis specifications doesn't list weights.
Vol 5 of the AEDB design record the 2C1 (welded steel) body weight as 1189 pounds including tarp etc., the 2H1 (composite wood/steel) weighs 836 when similarly equipped and the 2J1 (bolted steel) is listed at 1220 pounds.
The same Vol 5 lists both the C15A and F15A with steel bolted body at 7225 pounds.
7225-1220=6005 for the cab and chassis.
BUT - I have reservations about these numbers. I doubt that the F15A and C15A were within 5 pounds of each other due to the different drivetrains and other detail differences. Also, they don't state whether the weights are for cab 11 or cab 13 trucks (photos over the text are a mixture). Thirdly, they list the complete 15A with composite body at 7336 pounds (heavier than with the all steel body, but the bare body is listed lighter and mounted on the same chassis). This could be due to differences Ford/Chev or cab 11/13 but this isn't stated. Early/late production could also make a difference with runflat/spare, roof with square/round/no(/sunshine) hatch to consider.
