The floor will have tube running between the A and B pillars to support tubes running door to door for seat mounts. PRP Premiers 4" taller and 2" wider with PRP sliders. I'm 6'4".

Version 1 with the upper of 2&3 is my preference. You could definitely design the roof bars to reinforce all of that too.
How snug is the main hoop in the cab corners? Just curious...
But if he puts a big huge triple tube chrome roll bar in the back this stuff is totally unnecessary.
I have daily drivers with the same sliders. Mounted them in the stock location and it felt weird. Way to used to the bench seat height. I thought about cutting the floor out when I blazer tank swap it to get a real height.
If you REALLY wanted to you could put a bend in those windshield bars and take them all the way to the corners and then put a brace tube horizontally between the two bend centers
The halo reinforcement will tie into those B pillar points.
Can't fit a finger between the body and the hoop at all 4 corners.
I'm several inches lower than the bench for sure.
yep I like that
If you do a tube gusset in the top of the b pillar and use your fancy dimple die set to make some tie ins into the b pillar that would take care of the need for a bar running behind your noggin. Not sure if that would work or not but it’s what came to mind.
This one is on a Volkswagen so it should be exactly what you need...
Or can you use the upper seat belt bolt hole and bolt it to the b pillar? It wouldn’t be as strong as a tie in but it would still have to be pretty stout?
I was planning on that but it's minimal strength really
I put a couple 35 degree kicks on the harness bar so it hugs the back wall a little better. In these pics the B pillar is leaning forward a bit, I didn't notice that until after I took these pics.
But it helps, anything helps. The more good things you do by themselves are not great, their combinations end up making the whole, awesome.
Smaller X / V on the top is OK. Doing a center bar vertically is good also.
It is not going to be the best cage ever built, however you build what you can fit into and be the best for what you can do. A complete door X is the best, is it practical, nope so you build what will work for you.

I felt something in my back give and said “ah mother-foker” I knew I was done. It’s been over ten years since I’ve done this.
