Too far ahead for me to even think of. Still waiting to order Sting Gray with matching Hardtop. But I'm sure when I do finally get my new jeep there will be tons of options. lol. Top Lift Pros has a really nice system to remove and store the Hardtop but not a hoist system. I just confirmed on their website that there is a new model for the JL's. Pricey, but does have alot of positve reviews.I've been waiting for hoist manufacturers to addapt their systems for the new shape of the rear of the JLU's hard top. Has anybody seen or purchased one yet?
I'm curious to find out if there was a sound engineering reason to have to redesign this device for the back of the JL hardtop from that of the JK.Too far ahead for me to even think of.

Hi @DanW , I’ve been using my Lange Hoist-a-top that I bought for my 2008 jk without any mods just fine. There is enough gap between the glass and the hardtop. One thing I did notice is the hardtop is balanced differently and is heavier in the front.I've been waiting for hoist manufacturers to addapt their systems for the new shape of the rear of the JLU's hard top. Has anybody seen or purchased one yet?
What kind of system are you looking for Dan?I've been waiting for hoist manufacturers to addapt their systems for the new shape of the rear of the JLU's hard top. Has anybody seen or purchased one yet?
Sorry, a hoist from the ceiling. I want that sucker up and out of the way.
Dan I have the Lange power Hoist and I was told the modified bracket for JL is up, for pre order, on their site. I haven't checked it out yet though...Sorry, a hoist from the ceiling. I want that sucker up and out of the way.
I just sent them a message to see when the complete JL kit would be offered. Hopefully, it will be very soon.Dan I have the Lange power Hoist and I was told the modified bracket for JL is up, for pre order, on their site. I haven't checked it out yet though...
Just curious on how you’d attach these to the hardtop ? They’re made of glass fiber or something similar right ? Can’t really just drill a hole in it, can you ?I posted this in another thread but Im seriously thinking about mounting 4 of these to the top - evenly spaced for balance - so im not going through all the steps as Ive seen to get these in the air .
Seems simple to just back in - hook up - lift and drive off
Give me your thoughts
