I live in a high rise with underground parking. My not so elegant solution will be a couple times a year to invite a buddy over to help unmount/remount the HT. Storage will entail using one of the building's carts to transport the rear shell portion to/from my 3rd bedroom/office. Bottle of bourbon for payment to be supplied by (and shared with) me. My buddy's a BT fan so cheap labor , though we are always looking for an "excuse" to break out the rarer stuff. Comparing to even the cheapest solution here it would take many, many years before my expense outlay intersects with any of these - not to mention the fun of the shared experience and story telling with the after-hoist drinking. If I ever move back into a house, though, I'd probably look to integrate a ceiling lift.

Will this work with Bronco ?

Me Personally, I like my GarageSmart Hoist.
BlueTooth to my phone. I thought it was gimicky at 1st, but after using it..
Hands down better then any other system... but not cheap.

Checking in to see if anyone has bought/made a hoist for their tops, and if you could share details and pics. I like the Lange hoists but haven't been able to confirm if they are compatible yet.

EDIT: Figured it was easier calling Lange. They are waiting on their Bronco and do plan to offer a hoist for it. If you're interested, he suggested to continue to check their site monthly.

Costco has these on sale: https://www.costco.com/.product.1408928.html

Was thinking I could just get a sealable mattress bag and store my hard top on this for the summer, then I can put the soft top in the bag and store here for the winter.

Was looking for a true Bronco hard top shell storage bag but couldn't find anything.

hard top, rack, rtt,.. and a garage opening that's barely 82" .. this is getting complicated...

How has the garage smart hoist held up so far? What is the weight limit?
