Do you lower it after removed or leave it hanging from the straps?

I hook the straps in the back to the holes in the fiberglass. Since I have the partial top, or freedom top, or whatever it's called, I just hook the straps in the corner. With tension on, they don't even move. Then I just crank it up about 3 inches going clockwise. You can go either way. Then I just pull my rig out. I don't lower it. I don't have enough room in my garage for that. To ensure it wont fall i tie the extra straps together, front right to rear right and front left to rear left. I've left it for weeks at a time without any problems. When I want to put it back on I just back in until its close to where it needs to be and lower the straps in a clockwise manner like I raised it and it drops right into place. After you do it a few times it gets very easy. It takes me 5 minutes either way now. I'll post some pics tomorrow of where I exactly put the straps for you. I'm watching game 7 right now.
