The whole idea of a cargo box is to save space, so why create clutter in garages or workshops by haphazardly leaning it against a wall and taking up precious shelf space, or even worse taking the chance of misplacing accessories. A better idea is to rise above the clutter with the Thule 571 Roof Mount Cargo Box Storage Lift. Designed around a combined worm gear drive, roller, rope and crank mechanism the 571 Roof Mount Cargo Box Storage Lift can support up to 220-lbs (100kg) when installed as intended into concrete or wooden ceilings. This substantial weight allowance ensures that it can be used with virtually any cargo box on the market. Even better, the fact that the four rollers included can be installed at virtually any reasonable lengthwise distance means that the 571 Roof Mount Cargo Box Storage Lift can be used for all sorts of other items, such as canoes, kayaks, surfboards, sailboards, ladders and more. Regardless of what you are storing though, once you are ready to use it again, the simple crank feature of the 571 Roof Mount Cargo Box Storage Lift allows you to lower it right back onto your roof rack - simply pull your vehicle under the lift, lower your gear and secure it. Within minutes you will be ready to roll, fully loaded. Installation The Thule 571 Roof Mount Cargo Box Storage Lift is designed for installation in wooden or concrete ceilings. Its low installed profile allows for enough space for vehicles to be parked under it, assuming enough existing vertical clearance for that vehicle with a roof rack and cargo box. The lift utilizes four rollers, one at each corner, with the worm gear with central crank drive shaft centered between them supported by three heavy duty brackets installed into the ceiling. Along with the included rope, this creates a pulley system driven up or down with the included hook-based hand crank, which can be removed and stored when not in use. Designed around a combined worm gear drive, roller, rope and crank mechanism, it allows you to raise and lower any sized cargo box right into place.
