Mounting RTT on roof solo

[JDaPP]

Do you think this could lift up the jeep hardtop and swing it, or too heavy?

From what I remember, the hardtop weighs less then my RTT. I want to say the 4dr hardtop is about 90lbs? My RTT is at least 125lbs. I think the issue with the hardtop is whether you could get it high enough to swing it past the roll bar. I think it should work but something to consider. I was going to use mine for this purpose as well but I'm not going to get around to it for quite awhile.

I just watched the guy with the 'A' frame set up, great video. He's clever and funny and built a very simple yet effective design for not much money and easy to store when done cause not every one has a fork lift or a basketball net.

Where did you find the video of the "A" frame setup?
Thanks!
