I bought the hand winch top hoist. I thought was missing a bunch of parts, but I'm not so sure now. Pics show 4 foam blocks, bungee cord(s) 4 round blocks, etc. Looking further via Google it appears the TJ doesn't get all of that and only 3 blocks. My biggest issue is the rear hook. I thought it was flat and could close window, but apparently NOT. I'll call them Monday, but in meantime, can I plan on getting a different style so back window can be closed? I don't t really want it open during stow.

Other than that what about hoisting it from side wall vs back wall. Anyone do that?
 
Harkin lift uses the straps for lifting, no hooks.

Already have the lang. Didn't want to trust straps

I'll edit to say straps probably ok, but my top will be going to in 10' celling area. Want no chance of it falling on me.
