Every year, when the seasons change, it’s time to switch from your hardtop to a soft top. This is every Wrangler owner’s least favorite part of owning a Jeep. Instead of dreading the switch, make it a breeze with the Lange Originals Crank Hoist-A-Top. Without the use of a hardtop hoist, it takes multiple people to remove a Jeep hardtop. However, with the assistance of one of Lange Original’s Hoist-A-Tops you can easily take the top off your Wrangler JL alone. The balanced steel frame easily lifts and stores factory and aftermarket hardtops. With rubber coated hooks, you do not need to worry about damaging or modifying your hardtop. Lange Original’s rear Smart Hook™ ensures that the rear lift gate glass stays closed and out of the way for storage.
Minimum Ceiling Height: 7’
Maximum Ceiling Height: 20’
Stores and Protects: The Crank Hoist-A-Top from Lange Originals features rubber coated hooks and foam padding to avoid marring or scratching the finish of your expensive factory or aftermarket hardtop. Unlike other lifts, the Hoist-A-Top can be used to store your top up in the air, and out of the way.
User Friendly and Versatile: The included manual crank winch makes hardtop removal a piece of cake. Simply crank the top off your Wrangler, and drive away. This is kit is compatible with any garage, carport, barn, or shed with between 7’ and 20’ ceilings.

Lange Originals Crank Hoist-a-Top Reviews
Seems sturdy
Bought a Trektop Soft Top so I needed a place to store my hard top for the summer. The installation was fairly easy - finding the studs in my finished garage required a little extra time and I ran to the hardware store to purchase larger lag bolts than the ones provided in the kit (not taking any chances on my top falling down onto our Harley...). My only concerns are the cable clamps slipping over time and how slowly the hand crank raises the roof to the ceiling. I added and extra clamp on each cable and marked them to indicate movement to address the cable concern; removed crank handle and replaced with electric drill motor and socket to raise/lower top. Overall, for the price and the job this is an excellent product.
Great product and fairly simple installation!
