I know your overall goal is chassis strength but that cage is gonna do that extremely well oh yah it should hold up well in a roll too lol. Very nice
 
Sweet. I was hoping it would be approved.


I think its a good mixture of solid, and a bit of artsy fartsy. Also I dont think its an overload of tube. Just on the verge.
 
Thanks guys. Idk what I was thinking yesterday. Comparing this to the other design, its WAY stronger in every way.
 
What about the front cage?

Not sure on what to do there. Plus I have no good measurements of the front.

That will be a build it as I go area.

Much easier to model something that sits in a nice box. lol.. Plus the rear is what people will see..


My cage is not only for my blazer, I want it to be something to show off and get some side jobs.... So its gotta look killer.
 
Thats exactly how I want the halo bars. Offset and away from my head.

Thanks wade.
 
Just remember when you are adding bars, my truck with the tools, spare and the cage weighs in at 6550 pounds. Thats bad for sand wheeling.

But when you finally step up and go to Moab, it will be OK.
 
Sweet thanks.


FYI ima have like 4 fire extinguishers mounted to the cage inside, one in the engine bay. Contemplating one on the rear bumper, but a cheapie as some asshat will prolly steal it.
 
We saw a buggy endo at a race. The extinguisher was on the back roll bar. When it hit the ground it blew open. Looked like the buggy blew up.
