Default Another cheap Hard Top hanger solution

Ok...so I need to give credit where credit is due...I used the ideas that I saw posted on this great forum and specifically on the below write-up:
https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show...ghlight=hanger

I followed alot of the measurements that were listed in the write up....here is how it came out.....








As you can see, the Freedom Tops fit perfectly in the top. I used 2 pieces of 2 x4 and I had 1 piece of 1 x 4, which I used in between the 2 x 4's to create a lip for the Freedom Tops.

Lastly I covered the entire thing with a cover to protect it...and put all the screws and other parts in a zip locked bag...which I also put on the shelf with the tops.

Awesome ideas on here....

And no...there is no way that this is tipping over....

Thanks
Bear

We made sure not rest the top on the curved part. The wood is on a flat spot on the sides. As for the top piece...by putting the screws / bolts on the front part...I don't have to worry about the wood sliding out...and it was easier to ensure that almost all of the top is resting on the wall itself. There is almost no pressure on the bottom to create a bowed effect.

Thanks for the response..
