Thumbs up Roll cage???

Please post your roll cage pictures! And details of who did the work an estimate on investment.

Thanks!

and if Eric is out there I am particularly interested in seeing your roll cage set up, I hear it's the bomb.

If you guys end up getting a discount in the South Florida area for more than 1 truck, I may jump on the bus!

Dale, very nice - can you devulge how much coin? And thanks for posting the pictures.

Mecca, we might have as many as 4 serious L owners. I found out Eric's is now $2500, but it is clearly the best (looks like it came from the factory) job I have seen so far.

I like them.

They hold you in real well, I dont have to reach for something when I corner hard. (Of course, most corners are "hard" when you dont have any swaybars, lol)

They are a LITTLE small for my big ***, but I like it. Really hold on really nicely.

Best part, they are only $450 for BOTH seats...

Only thing you have to put up with is the Ricer "R" on them But I can deal with that.

here's mine




just make sure they go to the frame through the bed. i've had some resistance by tech as to whether or not my rear bars are legal or not. they are legal as long as they are supported under the bed to the frame

I live right down the street from Rhodes Custom. They do really nice work. Some killer paint jobs too. They are going to do the Cage in my Ranger when I'm ready.
