Weight of removable hard top?

I am trying to sell my 85' Runner and I had a guy ask me how much the hard top weighed...I told him heavy. I would guess at least 200lbs.

Ive searched around online to get a better idea, but no luck. Just thought I'd ask if anyone really knows.

Thanks Yota Tech!

yeah for sure! i told the guy that i have put it on and off the runner a couple of times by myself by getting "inside" the top and resting it on my shoulders while holding onto the "oh crap" handles...with it being lifted it helps im 6'4. but it sucks, definitely a 2 person job

Right now I see three, of which yours is the only one set up for hard-core off-roading (other two are pretty much factory configuration).

You're right, seems silly to harass you about converting back to DD.
