Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?

Thanks for posting. Very nice job on the roll cage! Not sure this applies to you but I've seen guys who often off-road in sand (dunes) weld plates across the top to keep from sinking in if the truck rolls.

Never really thought of that! I don't plan on doing any hard wheeling with it. If this thing rolls in the sand I'll have more problems than it sinking in!!! The main reason for the roll cage is to be able to go out with the family ( Wife and 2 little ones 3yrs & 6yrs) on the michigan state park dunes with no hard top on. Park rules state that behind every row of seating there must be support structure over head. Also the wife wants to drive it around town during the summer with the kids. Safety first!!!
