Ready to go Lifts for hardtops can be very expensive, so I decided to make my own, and I have to say, I am extremely happy with it. I ordered the dual tops for my bronco and needed a place to keep the other one when not in use.
The plan is, to keep the soft top on top of the rack. And when it’s time to swap them out, I would hook the hard top to the bottom of the rack, which would allow me to lift if higher with less above.
Here is the shopping list. The only thing I needed from Lowe’s was the pole that the hoist is attached to. Everything else was Amazon.

I bought two sets of the pull. Only 8 are needed but figured I would have spares for future projects…
