not sure about the span distance on the 4-door. The flat hooks I have can also slide and hook onto the entire drip seam on the hardtop. So you can try to maximize the distance that way
.
Thanks for the update. That looks pretty solid. But now I realize the difference with the 4dr...I dont have that anchor point in the front panel...I just have 2 anchor points in the back, which is why I was worried about just using those two in the back panel.

I wish there were some decent roof options out there.

More info please
I have short ceilings and a giant i beam in my garage, so a hoist isn't really feasible. I grabbed some C Clamps to attach to the I-Beam, the roof straps off Amazon that are looped through the clamps, and I just manually lift each side of the hard top and stick the roof strap in the channel.

Took a bit to get it lined up and figure out a good balance that works with the window open and closed, but it was cheap and works 🤷‍♂️
Hard top is light enough I can lift each side one handed to connect it standing on the ground, once it's off I drive out, and loop two ropes through the clamps and tie them off for safety.
