How to lift and mount heavy baja style truck canopy (not slide in)?

Looks like it's a Callen Camper?? Great camper and steel framed if it is a Callen.

Yes, people use jacks to lift it. You will need a mounting plate that can handle the load.

I'd suggest googling it, there are plenty of answers on various forums

Close but no rack mounts on the sides,and I don't remember an arched rear roof end. The rack attachment is not what Callen used to use.

It’s an Anderson canopies, made here in Portland. They’ve been closed/out of business for a while now.

It went real smooth with the forklift the seller didn't mention owning... thanks for the advice all, this thing is sweet! can't wait to build it out. Coming from a 6 inch rise fiberglass cap this is quite the upgrade.

I have a forklift and used it to load mine on. I was going to suggest trying to find someone with a forklift but I guess it couldn't have worked out any better!
