Title: Jeep Wrangler back half cage I'm working on.
Post by: CSaddict on March 07, 2009, 09:26:13 PM

My first try at a cage with my bender. Tubing is 1.75x.120 HREW. Its all bent using a JD2 model 3 bender with an air/hydraulic conversion.  We dove tailed the rear bars a bit.

Its not done in those pics. We added more bars in the top to mirror the front. It came out nice. Pete is cleaning it up and painting it. He still have 15 feet or so of tubing left over to add here or there.

I kinda assumed it wasn't done I was just being facetious, just a little Pirate4x4 humor, over there it always needs more triangulation...  ;)
