bare with me here, i don't have any of the fancy 3D programs,
this is tha cage design i'm thinking of puttin in my TJ, do you see any probs in the making?
the blue part is a sound bar thats infront of the stock main hoop, and it'l stay there,
there is a cross bar above the dash and the cage will be mounted to the side impact beams like the rockhard cage, with floor and frame tie ins. the diagonals should provide more lateral support then normal spreaders and don't interfere with the sound bar.
anything i should consider?
thanks

I am guessing you might hit your head on the spreader bars. You will have to get some dummy bars and see how much room you have.

You adding on to stock rollbar?
Just move the :rolleyes: soundbar behind the main hoop.
and run the spreaders from the main hoop to the spreader above windshied.
I can see with the triangular setup, you'll probably be banging your head off it.
