Need help with rollcage ideas

My blazer has a roll bar in it now, but I think it came out of something else originally. Anyway, I would like to build a "family cage" for it. Something that would protect the folks riding in the back seat too. Please help me out with some pictures

Re: Need help with rollcage ideas

did you do a search for "family cage"? The topic has come up in the past. Also, check on CK5.com for the same subject.

Yeah that's like what I'm talking about.
I also found this surfing around. It's not in a Blazer, but this style is pretty cool.

Just go throught the top of the dash. That's what I'll do when that part of the project comes around.

Later,

Here are a few pics of mine. Full roll cage tied to the frame and integrated seats.
