OK, I currently have my cage basically setup and welded to frame. I just did a basic box for the top and four post going down. I don't want to add a bunch of junk, but was thinking about a upsidedown V behind the seats. As far as the top, Im thinking about a single bar across the center, front to rear. Now should there be any gussets anywhere? I can't figure out how to post my drawings, Sorry. Dennis

what are you using DOM or HREW? and what size?
Metal is very expensive nowadays

good way to do it is to load a pic of your rig into "paint" or a similar program,then you can use the line drawing functions to mock up the cage bars.
post a side view pic here or email me one,and ill put my $.02 down on the design ;)

I'm just gonna superglue some 2" PVC together and cover it with some pipe isulation so nobody can tell the difference. Something is better than nothing, right? :D
