Lange Hoist-A-Top

Lange

Lange is a small, family owned and operated manufacturer of Jeep parts and accessories.  They operate their company out of Salt Lake City, Utah and have been doing this for over 20 years now.

    

Hoist-A-Top

Lange Hoist-A-Top is their most popular product.  Do you have a hardtop Jeep and enjoy taking the top off?  Not surprisingly, a lot of Jeep owners like going topless.  With a hardtop, this can be quite difficult.  With this in mind, the good people at Lange devised their Hoist-A-Top.  This is a useful item that attaches to the ceiling of your garage or carport.  Once installed, you can attach it to the top of your Jeep and it assists you in getting the top off quickly and easily. 

  

Power Hoist-A-Top

This is the easiest of the hoists to work.  It is operated by electricity and not by you.  Once installed, and attached to your Jeep, just turn it on and your hardtop is lifted off with ease. 

Manual Hoist-A-Top

About half the price of the power hoist, the manual hoist is also smaller and less bulky.  It is also powered by you.  While that may sound difficult, it actually isn’t.  You can actually be going topless about 3 minutes after you start the process.  

 

Crank Hoist

This is probably the middle ground hoist.  While it has more cable than the Manual hoist, it is also less cumbersome than the power hoist.  It is made from the same high quality material and the price is quite reasonable. 

Bike Hoist

In the same spirit of making things easy for you to lift, Lange created the bike hoist to lift and store your off road bikes.  It has a weight capacity of up to 450 lbs. 

Specialty Hoist

These are just like the hoists for the Jeeps, but they are for other vehicles.  You can get them for camper shells, Broncos, 4 Runners, Blazers, Land Cruisers and even Scouts.  They have the same ease of installation as the Jeep hoists and are just as simple to use. 

Where to Buy

Lange has made it incredibly easy for you to purchase their parts and products.  Even though they are a small company, with the help of the internet, their parts and products are available worldwide.  You can order their parts directly from them on their web site or you can go to another online dealer and order your part.  Authorized online dealers are listed right on the Lang Originals web page.

Crank Hoist

The crank hoist is still a manual hoist, but it has a bit more cable.  It is less cumbersome than the power hoist.  Installation is easily accomplished and this is for installation in your garage or carport.  It is intended for use with the Hoist-A-Top and enables you to more easily lift the top off of your Jeep.

Kayak Racks

Warranty

Warranties are basically a guarantee to you that the product you purchase is going to stand up to your expectations and if it does not, the company will either repair or replace it because they do believe in their products.  All Lange parts and accessories have part specific warranties.  

Lange Hoist

Lange

Lang is located in Salt Lake City, Utah and is a family owned company.  They produce parts and accessories for Jeeps and other 4x4s.  Well known for their Hoist-A-Top, they also offer door hangars, gas latches, paint savers, roof panel storage systems and a plethora of other products for your off road needs. 

Crank Hoist

The Lange crank hoist is in essence a manual hoist.  When your top is being lifted or lowered, you are the power behind it.  It is less bulky than a power hoist but consists of more cable than the traditional manual hoist.  You can install this yourself or pay a professional to do it for you depending on your mechanical ability. 

Hoist-A-Bike

This type of hoist is for anyone who has a bike, dirt bike or other type of bike under 450 lbs.  It will allow you to save storage space in your garage by lifting your bike and storing it on the wall or ceiling.  It also allows you to load the bike into your vehicle with ease.  If you need to change the oil in your bike?  No problem.  No more bending or stooping.  Simply change the oil while your bike is in the air.  Voila. 

Hoist-A-Top

Hoist-A-Top is the flagship item in the Lange line.  This part is innovative in that it allows you to remove or replace the top on your Jeep with ease.  No hernias here.  You can get either a manual or an electric version and install it in your garage or carport for use as needed. 

Manual Hoist-A-Top

A manual Hoist-A-Top is the version of this product that is powered by you.  Once it is installed in your carport or garage, it is a turnkey system that allows you to remove the hardtop from your Jeep by yourself in under 3 minutes. 

 

Power Hoist-A-Top

This is the version of the Hoist-A-Top that is not powered by you, but rather by electricity.  These are a bit more expensive than the manual ones, but well worth the price in the energy it saves you.  Once it is installed, your hardtop and your Jeep become easily separated by flipping a switch.

Warranty

Because Lange believes in their products, they offer warranties on all of their parts and accessories.  All of the warranties are specific to the part the cover.  That being said, please make sure to read your warranty so that you know exactly what is covered and what to do if you have an issue with your Lange Hoist.
