I know theres a few of these out there but perhaps I'm the first diy with the hard top stored above the garage doors when closed (so I don't need to back in). Fortunate to have a very tall garage (happens to be a very narrow2 door garage too).
But it was a major challenge to get the clearance, which involved me getting shorter straps, and adding a unabar.
Also added the 4 ratchet straps to eye bolts, to ensure it stays level, as a backup safety, and to give me confidence that its barely clearing the garage door.
i will add a full list with amazon links later.
btw, things to note, make sure it lifts level, i actually messed up and had to self repair one of the hardtop alignment pins on my first attempt.
im going too ppf the roll bars, hard to avoid it banging around especially coming down.
the 2 door hardtop is heavy and awkwardly back heavy when lifting by hand.
2 door looks sick with roof off, so glad to have this option!
