I have a popup camper and I am thinking about installing a crank lift system for the roof. The way it works now is you have to push it up physically and it is a fairly strenous operation. I was wondering if anybody has done this or has any ideas? Thanks for any advice.

I once had a folding camper with hard side walls. each end wall had two gas struts that did most of the lifting. Gas struts like the ones that lift the liftgates on Mini Vans were similar. If you have them they may be worn out.
