[Jt]

Looking good bud, keep us up to date as you finish it.

slowly but surely... I'm ready to get it done so i can break it and do it again:chainkiller: :chainkiller: :chainkiller: :chainkiller:

Are you going to put any more cross bracing on that cage?

 

[Stealth Attack]

Not sure yet. I gotta make the mounting braces and then test it. Ill add them if needed!

 

[RangerRock]

If it holds get you gonna sell some?? I think I would be interested.

 

[Stealth Attack]

I might try to make a couple to sell but I'm not sure just yet. How thick are the rods on the regular rollcages that you can buy and how much wieght can you put on them? I figured that if the 250lbs maintenance man at my work can stand on it and it don't give it should be able to take my beatings!

Just remember even though it can hold the weight doesn't always mean it can take a beating. When you jump your truck youu will have a 10-15 pound truck being pulled on by gravity so if the ground is hard it will tweak some. (For every action there is a opposite and equal reaction) The out come will be different than just a static 250 pounds standing on the cage. But test it hard and revise where needed, I hope all works out, if you don't like the outcome, might want to look in to Delrin rod.
