Thanks! Definitely a lot more work than quick editing shows haha

You'll get an audience really quickly if you keep the quality and consistency of videos like this.

Thanks!

like it. thinking about building a cage like this similar in a couple years. Once the kids are old enough I want to take them off roading but would want a roll cage in it and would probably install 5 point harnesses. I know they make 5 point harness seats for up to three in the rear for wranglers and side by sides so was going to adapt one of those seats to the rear.

Love the sandwich plates. Does the xo-fab cage have the same setup or do they require drilling holes in the roof? Also what did this cost you tubing/bender/coper included?

Pretty sure xo fab is identical setup with sandwich plates that drill and bolt through the roof. Cost wise I’m not positive. Bender was about $1500, notcher $200. And I think about $700 in tubing. Plus another $200 for paint, bolts, tube clamps, etc. So that being said the XO fab kit isn’t a bad deal

hello, how thick is the pipe you used? I want to do the same, hybrid, is the 42 mm pipe too thin?

NEVER use pipe for any safety items. You need to use tubing. Either DOM, or HREW if on a budget. You need to size the tube based off the weight of the vehicle. Lighter vehicles can use 1.75” diameter X .120” wall. Heavier vehicles need 2” tube.

Do you have any idea how much you raised the CG with all that?

I’m bummed I totally forgot to weigh the cage before installing it. So no legitimate numbers. However on trail ripping around corners I was surprised it does not feel any more top heavy than before. Definitely happy with the handling.

How much lift is on your rig?

Probably 6-8 inches

Looks like a beefy build. Almost time to hit the trail, no?

Hit some trails last weekend and it went great. Harnesses definitely give a false sense of confidence when trophy trucking around 😂
