Re: How heavy is a removable blazer top?

Just took mine off this passed week.

I've done it twice with 2 people, and once with 3.

I always place blocks under it before lifting it off. Then one person on each side. The issue I have is that we always pick it up too far forward and the hatch tries to roll it over. The next issue is that mine is 4 wd with slightly larger tires so you are lifting right in the middle of your chest where you have less strength.

We aren't body builders and with some minor stretching and whining, we get it done relatively easily. Still wish I had one of the contraptions posted above.
