Default Hardtop Hoist

I know there are a lot of different options for hardtop hoists here. Just want to post some pics of my setup in case it helps anyone else. I built it so it could not only hold the hardtop, but could hold a lot of other clutter when not in use. Works great so far!!

4 eye screws screwed into the garage studs in the ceiling.
4 ratchet straps looped under the hardtop.
Takes about 10 minutes to remove by myself.
Total cost was less than $20.

Has held for days, never an issue, easy to park under as well.

Top slides onto the wood and gets hoisted up to the ceiling. It's big enough I can stick my doors and top pieces on it as well to get everything up and out of the way. Once the top and doors come off they are off for the season.
