The new cage is completed using 1.750" x .120" American steel, notched and MIG welded together. The cage is held anchored to the truck by grade 8 hardware. The new cage has been increased from the original 4 point style to a new 7 point setup. The increase in mounting points will help make the cage much stronger which in return makes it safer for all the passengers in fact a roll over situation where to occur. A good piece of mind to have when one is out on a weekend tour of the GREAT OUTDOORS of ARIZONA. The height of the cage has come down, but the viewing windows have been increased to allow for a better experience for the guests. By bringing down the overall height of cage it changes the trucks center of gravity for the better. This change will help give the truck better traction as well as added stability in the handling of the vehicle while tackling those obstacles out on the unbeaten path. All that is left is the paint which Ed got handled over at Space Age Paint and a new canvas molded to fit. Thanks for the support Ed and we will see you out on the trials.
