that looks like a decent cage, the single center bar is for sure different!

From the second pic it doesn't look like it's tied to the frame. If it's not I would do this. I also think it needs a few more bars to be safe but it's not mine and I don't have to ride in it. :p:D


Who bent the tube for you? *EDIT:I take it your buddy bent the Tube for you since he buildsrace cars

I agree with desertCJ the rear porton does look factory.

yes it is the stock bar, the new stuff is all DOM...sorry for the mix up. i will be adding more bars but i had to get it in for Grand Lake on the 27th. i will also be adding some handles for the brave souls that want to ride.

Every one says tie it to the frame.. Not to be a dick here. But more importantly, if your not tieing it to the frame right away just make sure you have larger plates under the floor boards then your footings above the floor boards.


Once you tie the seats into the cage then tie it into the frame.

I like the front to rear lower stringers. Did he bend those up himself or are they bought somewhere?

Hey Chris, why don't you build an identical cage outta HREW and roll 'em both! That would help settle the DOM vs. HREW. You could even build a 3rd outta Schd 40 for all the pipe guys.:D

Just kidding looks good! I understand about wanting to just get it on the road. I just "finished" the cage in my Willys, I need to get to mounting the radiator and grille, along with finishing the wiring to get it on the road.
