Default Truck Cap Weight?

I was wondering if anyone knew about how much an 8' High top fiberglass cap weighs? I haven't tried taking mine off yet, but I'm thinking of rigging up a system of pullies to lift it off my truck and I'm wondering if the barn rafters can take it.

Couple of hundred pounds. I used 4 eyelets screwed into rafters and ratcheting straps. Ratchet each corner up and drive out from under.
