Why Is Hoist My Top Different?

One Portable Hoist for Truck Caps, Jeep Hardtops, and Bronco Hardtops — No Garage Required

Remove and reinstall your vehicle’s top in your driveway, apartment parking lot, at your son’s or daughter’s house, or on any flat surface with a freestanding hoist that doesn’t limit usage to one vehicle.

What Is Hoist My top

Hoist My Top is an American-made, veteran-owned business offering a portable overhead hoist that lets Jeep, truck, and Bronco owners remove and reinstall their own truck cap or hardtop without additional people or a garage.

An overhead lifting bar connects to a freestanding hoist, such that the vehicle sits underneath an open lifting structure. The hoist is not built around one specific top. It works as a truck cap hoist for camper shells, truck caps, and truck toppers. A Hardtop hoist for Jeep Wranglers and Ford Broncos. One system for multiple vehicles.

Freestanding Is Just The Start

The freestanding factor doesn’t make two hoists the same. Most freestanding systems are rolling carts or jacks built to work for one vehicle type. And they require a lot of space when not in use. Hoist My Top uses two towers and an overhead bar to create a large, open area that your vehicle sits under to remove nearly any removable top under 250 lbs. Then, when not needed, it folds into a small footprint just a bit larger than golf clubs.

The All-Rounder Hoist My Top

Our single hoist serves multiple vehicles. It is designed for toppers, pickup truck caps, camper shells, Jeep Wrangler hardtops, and Ford Bronco hardtops. So the hardtop hoist you purchase today will work even when your household’s vehicle changes tomorrow.

How Does It Differ From Rolling Hardtop Lifts?

For the most part, freestanding rolling hardtop lifts support specific vehicles and require space to store the lift when not in use, which is most of the time. Hoist My Top works for any removable hardtop/truck cap under 250 lbs. And, when not in use, the storage footprint is just a bit larger than a golf bag. So, it can be stored in a closet rather than requiring a garage to store the hoist.

Portable Overhead Lifting No Ceilings Attached

With Hoist My Top’s overhead hoist, you can lift without attaching anything to your garage or driveway’s ceiling. The portable overhead hoist creates its own overhead support wherever you set it up. No garage needed to use the hoist or store the hoist.

 

No Garage, No Problem

Our freestanding product works on any suitable level surface: workshop, barn, carport, driveway, side of your house, the street in front of your house, or your apartment’s parking lot.

Designed for One-Person Operation

Removing your hardtop/truck cap doesn’t require your friends or family. Use a hand-operated winch to raise and lower the top.

Breaks Down Instead of Occupying Space

The portable overhead hoist disassembles for storage rather than permanently taking over your garage or driveway. Set it up when you need it, and take it down when not.

No Electricity Required

The freestanding hoist is completely manual. No more struggling for a battery, motor, remote, or outlet. Use it anywhere, anytime.

Not Just Another Hardtop Lift

The market is full of products built specifically for Jeep-only lifts, truck-only jacks, or ceiling-mounted hoist systems. Hoist My Top was built for those who want a portable, use-anywhere, freestanding, overhead, one-person, manual hardtop hoist that works with truck caps, Jeep Wrangler hardtops, and Ford Bronco hardtops and doesn’t require a garage.

The Difference Comes Down to Freedom

One hoist fits whether you are driving a Jeep today, a Bronco tomorrow, or your friend’s truck next weekend.

Your Truck, Jeep, or Bronco Was Designed to Be Versatile.

Your hoist should be too.
