I am using two of these, to keep two bonnets up and out of the way. <http://www.princessauto.com/farm/storage/storage/8093650-50-lb-dual-pulley- lift> They've been modified by using aircraft cable to replacing the flimsy rope with which they came, and some wire was used to secure the bonnets to the grips at each end. Even with replacing the rope with cable, it seemed good value for the pulley hardware and ends, as they create a mechanical advantage so you don't end up doing a Wile E Coyote trick being lifted off the ground, as the bonnet comes crashing down.

If so, what hoist are you using?
