I bought my Bronco with a soft top on it, but just happened to have a hardtop laying around in my garage...lol. Anyway, I got the top painted last summer and put it back in the garage because I enjoyed driving the truck topless. Now that it's winter.....FL winter anyway, with temps as low as the 50's....terrible isn't it? I decided to put the top on. I've been wanting a lift system for it and have viewed all the different posts on the subject and finally decided on my own setup.
I purchased the Racor overhead storage system from Amazon for $123. I then purchased 2 6' pieces of 1" square steel tube and a 4x4 1/2" sheet of plywwod from Home Depot. I used the tubes and plywood for a platform to hang from the Racor cables and then used a couple of nylon straps to hang the top. In all I have just over $200 in the setup and it works great! I installed the top on New Years day and it was an easy task with the lift. I don't know what took me so long to getting around to it, but my wife says it's called procrastination. What do you guys think?;D
Oh yeah, I think it's been over 10 years since the bronco has sported a hardtop.
