TB sure bends up a nice cage! I especially like the cross bar over the dash ;)

I like it. Just curious about the reason for the bolt on back half, there by the rear windows? Is that so you can take it out in one piece?

Looks like it doesn't entirely get along with the a-pillar pod....... can you still see those gauges from the driver's seat?

The bolt is for the crappy smitty built roll bar that we added the cage too. I need to weld that together next.

The a pillar is as close as it can get due to the door. I can see the 210 part of the guages, so i figure thats all that matters, if i see the needle i am getting hot! But might be moveing them soon. It is not high on the list of shit to do.

Yeah he just needs to move the gaues to mount to the cage

Yeah, and maybe those ARB switches, too.... tho I can't imagine they were that much easier to reach before the dash tube was there.

Looks good, tho

Hey if you don't mind me asking, about how much did that cost and how long did it take to complete??

That setup is very similar to something I'm thinking about getting somewhere down the road when I get time and money. Thanks.

Sweet looking cage. Here's the one I'm building in my 94 right now. It's not quite finished yet, but I ran out of time before we went to Attica the other weekend.
