JKid, could you post more pics on yours? I like the idea of only using 2 hooks.

I need to build something b4 my Trek top gets here, it's on back order:( but my garage ceiling is 11 feet, and I don't have a ladder tall enough to get up there to mount anything, guess i'll be blowing money at lowes for a new ladder...

I did mine like wayoflife's this weekend.
What a great cheap and easy storage method!

Saved me any manhandling of the top (removal to a cart, hang it on the wall, etc) which just invites opportunity to damage it.

Thanks guys!

I finally did mine too, and man I was so glad to have the top off and not have to call a friend to come by and help! And even more glad I didn't have to spend a few hundred bucks either!
