Re: How do you store your hard top?
THAT is very much like what hubs has in mind only he is thinking a rail
system.
We went to Memphis yesterday and got an electric hoist.

Re: How do you store your hard top?
Thanks Bill! Lots of good ideas there.
I would like to store it in a way that the mud dobbers can't get to it and a
verticle rack on rollers sounds ideal to me.
I was just concerned about warpage. Of course thh owner's manual says to
only store it flat, but then it will be hanging where I will bang my head on
it and I can't cover it up there.
If I put it on a vertical rack with rollers then I can store all the other
stuff with it too, put a good zipper cover on it and it will stay nice and
clean.
Geeze... all this property and not a damn place to put a hard tip.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm
I could go buy one of those nice wooden sheds just for Jeep stuff.

Re: How do you store your hard top?
Here is a link to a couple photos of how we store our top. Took it off
yesterday (yayyyyyyyy, snows gone). I get on one side, son gets on the
other and we just lift it off the Jeep and set it on this rack for storage.
They aren't that heavy, just awkward. I'll cover it with a tarp for the
summer. One photo shows the inside of the rack has a small block at the
back edge, this keeps the top resting on the mounting flange instead of the
bottom (fragile?) edge. Cost about $15 or $20 to make. All 2x3's and 1x3's.
Maybe use pressure treated where it sits on the ground. Hope this helps.
