Tube buggy kit for 75 fj40???
Hello,i just picked up a rusty beat down 75 40...i am considering pulling off all the body except the cowl,dash,driver/pass floor,hood, grill,and inner fenders.....then remove the body behind the seats and build in a tube cage...very little lift,35's,welded diffs,fuel cell,you know where im headed....does anyone make a kit(roll cage sorta)that might help??? Also does anyone have the "grill frame" that hinges on the bottom...mine is toast .......and will a 2f run upside down.....never mind ill find out myself!!!lol thanx alot brian (pictures asap)

Mark has always been very helpful and is easy to work with when you want him to customize something.
Hafta ship, but his prices are good and it's worth it to have someone that knows cruisers and has done it all before.
If I did mine again I'd buy one of his full cages prebuilt and ready to go. It's still worth it even with freight.
