[mrendos]

has anyone made an easy way to remove their top I have no garage roof or anything to hook a come along to so thinking of a swing type lift maybe one of those bed mount cranes or an old swing set, does anyone have a plan or good set up thanks mark.

I've heard that slide-in camper jacks work well, but I've not tried them.

Search. There's been a couple good descriptions on what people have done and ideas that have been presented.

(search general tech forums)

How much space do you have at your place? And how tall is your scout? Id think four 4x4s in the ground with two connecting them up top. Through a couple of I-hooks in em and use ratchet straps or the like.

Why not just cinder-blocks and 2x4s... lift the top a little by hand, slide the 2x4s in and then drive out?

Just a thought...

some good simple ideas, i guess you always look for a complicated gizmo, maybe some 6" pvc pipe sunk like post's cut out for 2x4 to fit down in an
go, thanks for the ideas
