Having a hard top is awesome for extra insulation in the winter, but it's only right for Jeep
owners to run their Jeep with no top on in the summer.
The Lange Originals Power Hoist-a-Top is the most convenient way to remove your hardtop
by yourself, for your '07 to '17 JK.
The winch-powered system...it makes it the safest and easiest way to get the hardtop
off and keep it out of the way of the rest of the things in your garage.
I would like to mention that you will need a garage that is at least 7 feet tall, or
more, and that you have room to park your Jeep in the garage to lift the top off.
Installing is a little more involved, but I would say this is a two out of three wrenches
on the difficulty meter.
And I'll get into that in just a moment.
This system consists of two major parts that bring the whole kit together.
First, you have the frame that's gonna hold the hardtop.
The frame is made of a sturdy steel that has integrated hooks to hold the top.
The hooks are rubber-coated, so there's no damage occurring when you hoist the top, and
it even has a smart hook for the rear, so it'll keep your back window closed when the
top is suspended.
Not to mention, this has multiple foam bumpers that don't allow the steel frame to make contact
with the actual hardtop or the freedom panels.
This is especially great for JK owners who have a painted hardtop to match their factory
paint.
Speaking of foam bumpers, this also comes with a secondary set of large foam bumpers
that'll allow you to safely place the freedom panels on top of the frame before you lift
it off.
As well as heavy duty bungee cords that attach to the holes around the frame to keep everything
secure.
The second part of the equation is the winch that's gonna be doing the hoisting.
This comes with a very powerful 120-volt winch, with a 30-foot long steel cable.
The winch itself comes with a remote control switch to control the hoisting, and it even
has an adjustable safety switch, so you can enjoy some peace of mind while you're lifting
your very expensive hardtop.
Now, I would like to mention, again, that you will need, a garage or a car port that
is 7 feet to 25 foot tall, including space to park your Jeep for proper hoisting.
This, right now, is the most expensive option for a hoist on our site, coming in at around
$400.
This is a bit pricey but, in my opinion, is the best quality hoist and the most well thought
out.
We do have other options on this site that are a bit more budget friendly, like the Lange
Crank Hoist-a-Top that requires manual hoisting for about half the price.
If you don't need the winch-powered system and you're okay with a crank system, Lange
keeps great quality in their manual hoist, and it's a good option if you're sticking
with the lower budget.
This mini built power top hoist can be had for about $100 less than this, but the only
drawback with that is that the frame comes with rollers to store the top on the ground,
since they don't recommend that you store your very expensive hardtop in the air.
Overall, Lange Hoist-a-Top is the safest and most convenient way you can take your hardtop
off of you JK.
In my personal opinion, if I'm investing in a hoist, I would get a quality unit that's
gonna lift my very expensive hardtop off of my Jeep safely and reliably.
Now, like I said, this install is a two out of three wrenches on the difficulty meter,
because this is very involved, and working with winches, especially steel cable...it
can be dangerous without a professional or an experienced person.
I'd say this should take you about two hours.
And you're gonna need some hand tools, a stud finder, and a drill to get everything installed
properly.
There are a couple parts to this install, including setting up the winch properly, choosing
a good mounting location with the support bar, and putting together the frame that's
gonna be holding your hardtop.
First, with assembling the frame, you're gonna attach everything together, like the rubber
bump stops and the multiple mounting points.
Moving to the winch install, you're gonna need the fine studs to mount it on, and they
recommend keeping it as close to the Jeep as possible, so you can reach all the controls
while you're manipulating the top on and off of the Jeep.
If you're wall-mounting the winch, mount the winch as high as possible for only ceilings
under 9 foot.
And, if you're using a ceiling mount, I'd only recommend it for ceilings in the 9-foot
range.
Make sure there are no nuts or other imperfections in the joist, and if imperfections are found,
reinforcement will be necessary to each side of the joists.
I'd recommend to become familiar with the start and stop function of the winch, and
then you can open all the doors, remove all the necessary hardware, securing your hardtop
to the Jeep and position all the hooks underneath the top.
When you're lifting the top for the first time, make sure it stays balanced and sits
slightly lower in the rear than in the front.
Balance is key to this install, but it can be changed accordingly.
So, if you're looking for the most convenient way to remove your hardtop on your JK, Lange
has you covered.
