Toyota FJ40 Roll Cage build up
I dont know if anyone is into older Toyota land cruisers, but I'm about to finish up a cage for one. I think they are pretty cool to be a toyota, but here's some pics for those interested...
I went with some cool tie in floor plates from ruff stuff that the tube slides into and then welds to add a little strength..
frame tie ins
progress
more progress
I'll snap some completed pics once the guy paints it and stuff

I need to learn how to use bend tec, one of my friends has it and i've looked at it before but it just confused me. I had a picture in my head on this and just started bending tube and texting the guy pictures and this is what we ended up with.

Nice!! Looks like a good place to try it out. Should post up some pics of the trip.
Where's you're diagonal in your B hoop or from your C pillars to halo across the back?
Back half of the cage will fold over itself side to side without something to lock it in.
