Wouldn't it have been simpler to just flip the pistons, put hooks on the ends and pull yourself up instead?

It seems like it would be much easier to line up since you could drive around with hooks extended, line up against the tower, and pull up. With a bottom lift you have to be absolutely lined up before you can lift, and if you're off center at all you have to start over.
