Hard Top lifter

[AlanD]

Hi Guys has anyone ever used one of these for lifting the hardtop on/off?

if not what do you all think, i'm thinking of getting one but not too sure about the weight of the top?

Even if that roofbox lifter is up to handling the weight of the Stag hardtop, I'd be surprised whether the gearing is then up to removal by one person (sort of defeating the objective)

I've got the parts, just the usual story that I will get around to it one day . . .

My costs were
£20 electronic hoist (Maplin)
£0 heavy duty roof bars (Freecycle)
£8 heavy duty webbing staps
---
£28 all in !

Or use your arms and those of your wife/partner. That way you don't have to spend a penny
