Bronco Bob roll cage pics?

This is my donor Blazer. Nose dive at about 5 mph.
Notice it has some triangulation, not much but some.

And to answer your question I will put enough tube in mine to keep my passengers and myself alive in a roll over.

This is an excellent picture! When I designed mine, I searched everywhere for pics on how cages performed in different rollovers, but didn't have much luck finding any that close up or that weren't full on tube chassis. Got any more pics of it? I'd love to see more.
 
Here's a pic of a deformed cage well not the best pic



That was about a 15 to 20 ft drop upside down. The center span had to much unsupported area. When that gave way it tweaked alot of the cage. There are several large dents in the tube.

But I do not consider that a structural failure. My head and my passengers head did not touch the cage or even get close to it.

Next time there will be a center support on the b pillar a center /\ support on the windshield and more use of the 1" tube as gussets.

That was a very hard roll
