I own a four car tandem garage (Jeep is in the front) which means the back wall for the hoist rope is 20+ feet from the jeep. Is it possible to pivot the install 90 degrees so that I am pulling and locking it from a side wall to the hoist?
Yes, it is. Side mount options are discussed in the Installation and setup guide. Thanks for your inquiry.
What is the max weight capacity on the pulley system?
145 lbs. Thanks for your inquiry.
I have a slanted ceiling in my garage that is not horizontal and parallel to the ground. Will this product still work for a slanted ceiling?
The hoister can be used on a slanted ceiling. The lift will be limited by the lower side of the ceiling. The welded eye that is in the top plate of the wall needs to be installed on the same plane as the rest of the system to prevent the ropes from rubbing on the side plates of the rope organizer.
Your pictures show about 5 feet of space between the back wall pulley and the "main hoist pulley or Y point" (not sure what you call it) . Because I have a soffet in the ceiling of my garage, I'm limited to about 24 inches between those 2 points. Will your system work in such tight area?
You would be limited to only about 18" of lift per Harken if positioned this way. Thanks for your inquiry.
Can you please proved the diameter of the hoist rope? I am going to purchase a hand crank and want to ensure it will accommodate the rope. Thank you.
The rope supplied is 5mm thickness per Harken. Thanks for your inquiry.
Can you add a powered wench. If yes, what power
No, this is not designed for powered use. Thanks for your inquiry.
Will this product work for a 10’-9” ceiling? Thank you.
This works with ceilings from 8.5 to 10 feet.
Can this lift be used to permanently mount the hard-top to the garage ceiling? I never intend to put it back on my Jeep now that I live in South Florida. Or is there a better long-term solution for a 2016 Wrangler Unlimited?
There is no reason this cannot handle a long term suspension. The cam-style operation of the cleats will hold tight. Just keep an eye on the condition of the roping. Certain climates can cause the rope to deteriorate faster.
Any idea how much the hardtop weighs on a 2020 jeep wrangler sahara unlimited?
Approximately 140 lbs with the panels
How high can the ceilings be for this product to still work? I believe my garage ceilings are somewhere between 10-12 feet.. Thank you John
This kit works with ceilings from 8.5 to 10 feet.
