Default Dustin's cage work and bolt on tie in plates .

Work very well on a roll...cleveland rock tested late Sunday evening...YESTERDAY...lol...I was waiting for my spotter and danny to get Danny's Jeep turned around , and decided to test the waters for a line when they were ready , and I tried and it was going to climb it ,so I backed down a slipped off line , So i decided to see if it was still in line to climb ,but without a spotter I did not see that the new line was going to drop in in the inder cut , and just as I my tires crested the top my right rear dropped in the hole and I was 2 slow hitting reverse and went over hard ...lol...only damage is a a couple dents in the side of the hatch and a ding in the JCR quarter fender ...We rolled it over pulled the plugs , and found 1 cyclinder with oil in it purged it and drove 150 miles home like nothing happened...only have 2 regrets 1-I would have walked this with a spotter , and 2 since I did not wait for spotter or camera man I don't even got a cool roll video , but Danny has pics of sitting on cleveland rock on the roof ...lol...that EXO did not budge a bit anywhere , So there you go Dustin we know the design works now , and I'll try to get you pics of your work in action .
