new rear cross member grafted in.  took a little longer than i though- but did it the right way and happy with it.  8 bolts, body mounts, and gas skid bolts, it will be removed for galv dip easy. 

3/8" plate ties in the dring mounts and cross member to frame. 

un packed the cage and started eyeing up a plan

there are 4 other tubes that came with the cage kit i think two shorter and two longer,

what were those for lol?  the pre notches are at an angle so nut sure.  i have plenty of new tube for seat mounts


any progress on sliders?  should send the other seat over too, and ill have to sit in it to test fit when we get to that point.

im avail this week also...

Other tubes I believe are for diag braces for the top...
but I was also going to ask about triangulation...  if there are any other bars you would suggest throwing in there..
something between clean and functional to "wow that a cool looking cage
