## Description

When Monday looms and it's time to put the toys up until next weekend, Thule's MultiLift makes the job simple. Its winch-operated system can suspend roof boxes, kayaks, surfboards, and more, weighing up to 220lbs from the garage ceiling. With this crank system you will be able to keep your accessories high above your car and out of the way until the next time you need them. This accessory lift can also be used to lower the gear onto your vehicle for hassle free installation. Let this hand lift take the strain out of uninstalling and storing gear by doing the heavy lifting for you after your next adventure.

Review: Works great, but cord is too short - The metal mounting plates are not designed to match 1-1/2" ceiling joist width. I used 3/4" plywood cut 6" x 36" for the install. (See photo) I opted to replace to cord which was included in the kit, with 550 paracord. This allows me to lower the roof rack completely to the floor. Since the paracord is thinner (but as strong if not stronger) it does not cause problems when spooling. Make sure your cord is the same length on each side after its tied to ensure an even lift. The physical install can be tricky. It's definitely easier with a helper. Pay close attention to the direction of your ceiling joists, unless you're using a full sheet of plywood, then it's a non-issue. Once installed, it functions great. I'm impressed at how easy it works. Even though I didn't like the price, I'd buy it again.
Review: Works as intended - Works as intended no complaints. Just make sure you read the instructions and other reviews if you need assistance. I bought 3 2x4x8 and cut them to 6 feet in length. Bought 50 wood/decking screws at 3 and 1/2 inch’s and that seemed to do the job.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How close to ceiling can box get when raised to maximum?  How far down from ceiling (in feet) is box when lowered to maximum?**
A: Hi Robert,When fully raised the cargo box will be 6 inches away from the ceiling and can be lowered up to 78 inches.

**Q: How long is the crank?  I have an 11 foot ceiling.  Will I be able to reach the lift with the crank?**
A: The total length of the crank handle is 48 in. Center for the hand holds are at 36 inches and 45 inches. The eyelet center for the gear mechanism is 6 in below the ceiling. So for an 11 foot ceiling the top handle of the crank will be at about 7.5 feet and the lower handle at about 6.75 feet.  If your not tall a small step stool would make it work.

**Q: Does this have to mount into garage ceiling studs or combo of studs/roof drywall?**
A: Ideally you want to mount to studs. On my setup I have two mounted to studs and the other two mounted using toggle bolts. The supply plugs for drywall mounting but I don't trust them.

**Q: How far apart are the mounting locations? I have an open ceiling with exposed rafter beams that I'd like to attach the hoist to.**
A: The mountings are 17.5 inches apart. I also have exposed beams in my garage, so I used 2x4s to make the mountings work.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Time consuming install but great product!
*by S***Y on May 20, 2021*

Works just like advertised. Decided on this one due to the other reviews and how close it allowed the cargo carrier get to the ceiling. I want to mount above garage door when open to hind it as much as possible. Installation was time consuming but not overly difficult. Gave it 4 stars due to installation but function of product and ease of use is 5 stars all day!
