The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network - View Single Post - made a hoist mechanism for my top :-)

Every time I see pics of the tops being hoisted I have to laugh about my first experience removing my top. I used a hoist and cables and a 2x4 at the front right behind the front seats and then a 2x4 at the rear - when I started to lift I then noticed my board was running through the roll bar and of course that wouldnt' work. Had to move the front 2x4 in front of the front seats.
