Re: Rollcage pics anyone?

Thanks for the closeup and detailed pics. That's the kind of stuff I needed to see,like where/how to attach it to the frame.

Ratteon - I'm kind of in the same situation as you, I got into my build and realized I needed to make some changes. I haven't paintedmy cab yet, but I have painted the frame already, which now I'm glad I painted instead of powdercoated, so I can fix it after welding the cage it.

As for the rearward bars, I know they do offer a lot more rigidity and that's what I need, but man I really wanted kind of a subdued look to my truck (eventhough I have 335 rear tires out back!), and those bars poking out the back glass blow that out of the water. Maybe I can kind of hide them like team39763 said, but I don't know how that would affect their legality at the drag strip.
