This is actually kind of cool and my garage is stupid high so it could work very well.
I like this Harken Hoister shown on this Jeep. Hope it's just as easy on the Bronco.
Poke away, the answer is no. The hoist is rated to lift a certain number of pounds, some may call it "load rated" but that just means the hoist can lift that much weight...Aren't all hoists, by definition, load bearing?

Ha. Engineers. So serious.Poke away, the answer is no. The hoist is rated to lift a certain number of pounds, some may call it "load rated" but that just means the hoist can lift that much weight...
IF, IT IS ATTACHED TO A LOAD RATED STRUCTURE that is designed for the that weight.
Hang a 500, 1,000, 2,000 pound Harbor Freight Hoist from the attic joists in the standard garage at your house to lift the engine out of your car, power up, and watch the ceiling joists and roof collapse onto your car.
Hang the same hoist from a steel girder in a commercial building, that is Load Rated for your choosen Hoist Lifting Capabilty, and you will now have no problems pulling the engine.
My son built one to remove his top on his jeepAnyone with any experience or recommendation?
I have a couple of ceiling mounted bike racks from The Container Store:

Thoughts on possible converting these for the Bronco hardtop?

I have one of these, works on my 2 door and the wife 4 door Jeep hard tops. I would assume given the dimensions for the Bronco it should work for that as well.
