Any pre 91 YJ's have an aftermarket rear rollcage- can you please post pictures??? Please post any install advise as well.

I have the old Wrangler/CJ style rear rollcage. I bought the Essentially Offroad rollcage that welds to the existing factory cage. (I ordered the TJ style rear braces on the sides that run over the wheel wells, it has the tube that runs between the new tj style cage in the rear above the tailgate, and it has 2 brace bars that run from the old cage above front passenger heads to the new bar above the tailgate.)

Want to see how you incorporated the aftermarket cage to the factory cage. Do you need to weld in any trusses or is it strong enough as is?

What would be the srongest way to mount the cage? Should I cut the EOR cage to weld to the downslope of the YJ cage or weld the EOR cage to the body?

How can you tie the rear rollcage into the frame? Do you need to tie the rear cage to the frame or can you use a large foot plate to distribute the impact across the larger surface?

Thanks-
:beer: :D :beer:

weld is stronger than bolt-on (if you can weld) it's best to tie to the frame, but plates are better than nothing (but why do a cage and then take short cuts?) and your better off buying tube and cutting and bending it your self, you can put it where YOU want it, not where somebody else say it should go.
aftermarket rear cage? most aftermarket (or all of them) are front add-ons...for the rear i've only seen the bolt on straight bars, and they cost WAY too much. You can get something fabbed up for you at a shop for less money...but hey, it's your money!

why not just put a 92-95 rear cage in there? If your building a cage don't half ass it. I see perfectly good rear cages all the time in junkyards. They usually go for around 125 to 150 up in this neck of the woods.

I already have the cage. After checking my junkyards, I found that they wanted way too much for their "junk". The junkyards around here are a rip off!

I bought the EOR rear cage for less than it cost me to get one out of a junkyard and it comes with more braces than the TJ cage.

I wanted to see some pictures of how people mounted their rear cages....
