I'm starting the process of building myself a rollcage, as the stock bar just isn't safe. From people that have built their own, what have you used for tubing? I'm thinking 1 3/4 DOM .120 wall. Any advie for frame tie-ins or anything else I should watch for? I have access to a bender and have all the welding equipment I'll need so that won't be a problem. Let me know what you think people.

Body Damage is Cool
Trust designs that have been rolled and hold up.

Don't mess around with cage work, before finish welding, have some additional sets of eyes look to see if it looks safe and designed well.

Thanx SD. A good buddy of mine builds 'em for race cars and I'll have him take a look before I finish it.
