yea, you missed a great ride friday. the cage worked great. I need to pull the wood and bark out of the paint and repaint the fender bars now. I was able to drive like i wanted to instead of trying not to hurt the sheet metal.

The seats are my factory 99 seats. I had a set of racing harness style seats in it but they were not comfortable. I sold them and cut holes in my factory seats, covered the metal holes with rubber, sewed up the slits in the fabric and put them back in the jeep. they worked great. much better than the auto locking factory belts. The harnesses are from a guy on Ebay. They are only like 40.00 for the set and look to be pretty good quality for the price. I'll be getting 2 more for the back seat.

here is my build thread. if you get pretty deep into it there are some pics of how i did the seats.

very nice job on the cage!

I'd suggest hood pins all around at this point with your hood. imagine trail repairs on your engine, trying to get to the back of it...
