Help with Lange Hoist Top - Pics Requested

[artieandgumbo]

I just bought a new 2007 Unlimited - first Jeep Wrangler!

I'm not very mechanical, so I would appreciate pictures of the steps people have taken to build the hoist top here:

If I could get various pictures of the install process that would be great!

Have you already purchased the Lange hoist? If so, I'm not going to be able to help you. However, if you’re just looking for a way to get your hard top off solo (and store it), I might be able to.

If you have a few bucks to spend and a little more ambition (than i do), HG97TJ just wrote up a fantastic homebrew solution. It’s titled “Hardtop hoist/storage write-up (http://www.jk-forum.com/showthread.php?t=5559)”.

If you are trying to do it a bit cheaper and/or have a bit less mechanical aptitude, check out mmccurdy's post called “My sub-$20 hard top storage solution (http://www.jk-forum.com/showthread.php?t=1035)”. I used this method and just got it done the other day. It works perfectly and took very little time.

I’m also a first time Wrangler buyer and have found this site (and its members) to be very helpful.

Thanks. I might give your solution a try. It looks really easy.
