Raisin' the roof 3.0

After many unsuccessful tries to replicate BobbyK's top removal contraption I gave up. It might not of worked because I was using straps to lift the top instead of arms or cables. With the single point of lift I just couldn't get the top balanced on the frame everytime to be able to remove easily by myself.

The lift is *just* high enough to back the Blazer under it. Good thing I went with the highest lifting lift I could find otherwise I dont think it would work.

I did however find a purpose for the old lifting frame so not all is lost I put a hitch on it and some wheels and made it a dolly for the top.
