Im going to be building a cage soon for my 800. Was wondering if i tied my cage into my rock sliders then the sliders to the frame if that would be a stong connection? Should i angle the cage tie in to the frame where the slider meets the fame and weld the snot out of it there? any suggestions would be helpfull. thanks

Picture sliders like D&C's.

I don't have the bushings, though.

I dont know if I would waste time trying tie the cage together with bushings. I would feel better about having the cage directly bolted together. I never have been a fan of a 90* tie in. Your just asking for it to sheer in a hard roll, but with the body sandwitched in between, you should be ok.

I'll have pix of mine soon...
Still fabbing it up...

I used my sliders to reinforce my body. Built support for the C-pillars, and reinforced under the B-pillar, then tied the cage into all these. Still in progress. Documented with lots of lousy pics here (http://www.justih.org/Binder-Bench/showthread.php?t=5123).
