This design also works with TJ tops. I gave the one I built last year to a friend and built another tonight for myself. Thanks for the plans.

Built mine a couple weeks ago and can't believe how simple this thing is and how great it works!

Genius! This cart took me an hour to cut wood and slap it together...all with leftover construction materials. I can finally fit my jeep and the hard top in the garage at the same time. Brilliant

FYI, Harbor Freight has the 19x30 dolleys on sale for $11. I bought one to use the casters, the 2 30"s doubled up as they're 1" and the 19"s doubled up and cut for some of the 6"s. Also there's some carpet on it to use. I had to buy 2 8' 2x4s and the 1x2. So far less than $20 as I already have screws.

Built mine yesterday. Turned out pretty good I think. With the exception of just being a little short on cloth.
