    Not sure it will work but this guy in the overland thread had a cool idea.

    He used a scissor jack to raise and lower his rtt.

    Holy shit that's a clean looking rig man! I'd go relentless or look into Bruteforce fab as well. Wait times are super low

    It'll be too low. But not totally unusable.

    That's at 28.5" closed haha gonna be too tall to begin with befor you raise them.

    Also too complex and too expensive.

    I thought of doing that that well. But ended up not liking how it would work in my head with the side lift. I couldn't think of a way to get it up high enough and down low enough. Wanted mine below the roof when down like all the way.

    Think Jerry did something similar first on his trailer with actuators.

    That's why I said "I would like to use something like this but don't know if these are the right ones."
    They do come in different sizes and cheaper prices.

    Not too bad. Gotta take the panel around the AC and radio off. Panel under the steering wheel, and the black panel around the cluster. But not the actual top of the dash itself or anything

    ooooooo i like the second one! Thats a nice design. I you could set it up to do the side lift still too possible.

    Those actuators are huge though. Plus, i bet they aren't very...offroad proof...

    But i like that scissor design.

    I'm still searching for a more offroad proof one, Maybe someone on here knows of a better one but the idea looks good in the videos.
