Talking REMOVING Tonneau COVER

Hey guys, New to the site. Was wondering if anybody has figured out a way to lift a Tonneau cover from a bed of a f-150 supercrew by yourself? Maybe a hoist in the garage ceiling or a engine lift? Anybody come up with anything I would appreciate it. Dave in Vegas

You could probably rig a hoist in your garage, using a 2 or 3 sheave block and tackle. Was thinking of attaching those extra-powerful suction cups used for carrying glass to the end of the tackle (wouldn't mar the finish and could be placed exactly where needed for balance). It would be for remove/install only, not for storing.

And it would be best to at least double-up the joist you're hanging the rig from!!
