Did you design the cage for multiple rollovers!

No, not really. It is designed as a safety cage (in the event of a bad roll) that can flop over and over again, and rub on trees, while maintaining the "fj40 look". A multiple hard barrell roll cage would look a bit different.

But it would likely hold up very well to a hard roll. and with about 10" more tube and a slight change to the rear bars and you can summer sault it til your hearts content.

No I mean mounting it 2-3" farther back than it was designed, placing all the pillar bars in the windows, and almost making me shead a tear.

Hmmm there's a couple of suspicious welds that I see.

Todd, I brought good beer yesterday and it's sitting in John's fridge. You know he's not going to touch it since it doesn't say Coors.

Finally got my camera working and downloaded a few pics of the finished cage. If anyone has any questions about it please shoot me a PM. It's a hell of a cage!

Also snuck a pic of the ginger kid's ride on 42's. I did'nt know they were "self clearancing"!

The paint looks great!

I cant wait to see it all cleaned up this weekend!

Three coats of Rustoleum flat black. I left a little splatter on there just for sharts and giggles. I hope the grab handles didn't Todd it up.
