Anyone try this? It looks pretty crappy but I guess it could work.

Too bad you're not closer...I build rollcages.1000-Oaks said:Good thing I'll be farming out the tubing bending for the production ones, I'm turning a lot of tubing into scrap with my skillz...
I want the family cage. I run a hard top and full doors. Here is a pic. The second pic shows the front part above the driver and passenger.THRILLSEEKA said:I just did a 77 Bronco... Sweet cage, spiderweb gussets, 5-point mounts, cup holders and the rear crosbrace over the wheelwells held two amps, his ignition control, and dual Optimas. That was a lot of fun.... Ugh.
Are you sportin a hardtop or a soft? Full doors/inserts? Want a full cage or just a roll bar?
I could build it, sell it to you REALLY cheap, then you could pay my gas to come ride/deliver the cage!
Dont need 2" tubing, 1.5 120 wall with .75 to 1" 095 for yor gussets.THRILLSEEKA said:Here's an example of my ability to get carried away with tubing! 300' of 2" DOM....in a Suzuki Sidekick!

Remember 'ol Drew?! I got out of off-roading and into mtn biking. Next venture is a bike-rack company! Turned in the patent application, working on prototype #2.

You don't drag the end of the rack pulling out of parking lots? Or is the truck tall enough?bullcrew said:Absolute finish. I checked the missed calls and one was Kalispell.
Just checking.
My rack cost me $100 with straps and rubber bungees and faom for the posts.
Took me about an hour + ano time and a buddy powdercoated it for me.
I was wrong, it wasn't 2", it was 1.75"...I don't own a 2" die. And DOM tubing it 'tarded, but I got it at wholesale $$$, so why not!bullcrew said:Dont need 2" tubing, 1.5 120 wall with .75 to 1" 095 for yor gussets.
Works fine and allows you to tuck it in alot more areas Ie the dash, side pillars and roof for room. Hitting your head on a roll cage is by far one of the most painfull eye openers.
Just my 2 cents, score bitd and mdr regulations all have a min of this and all the trophy trucks, pro series 7s, 7u class 8 and 9 are almost all 1.5
