Hello,
Find a marina.
They have a crane that you can use inexpensively

Luc,
Marina and inexpensively can't be used in the same post

I lifted it onto the roof of my Jeep with my sons help. Parked the jeep along the side of the RV (class C, 11.5’ tall) then we lifted it the rest of the way onto the roof.

I have an earlier version (20 years old) that I use for lifting heavy stuff to the top floor of my shop. Works great but I don't think I paid over $80 for mine at the time.

But if you really mean wenches, on occasion they are running the register or stocking the floor.

Now imma go get cancelled!
I mis-typed it...he was just trying to be punny.

Yeah, I got that, but included the HF winch info for those that may be interested in that.

The rest was just my attempt to build on his "funny".

I replaced both my roof AC units, rented a manual material lift from Home Depot $55, it fitted in the back of my SUV for transport. Had everything ready to go up and old ready to come down, placed new units in place and returned lift before coming back to finish install. Did another on a friends rig I was on the roof with a strap tied around unit more as a safety, my buddy pushed it up the ladder, he did the work. If you do the ladder make sure the top is about level with the roof.
