With the harness bar like that, can you recline your seats back all the way? Are you going to put handles on it for the passengers? I think that would be really cool.

Jeep's lookin great man!

No I can't recline the seats but I like feeling supported. And that'll change in the next few weeks once I get my tubing for my cage. And there WILL be handles But thanks for the compliment on my jeep!

Well funds and time haven't really been permitting so I'm waiting to get enough money for my tubing to do my cage. In the mean time here are some pics of the harness bar and the brackets I made.





let me know what y'all think. Once again I'm using flux core and have only been welding since the second week of April

Well im waiting on just a little more cash until I order my tubing. In the mean time ive been capping and getting holes covered. I know this may sound like a noob of a question but how do you get it to look stock? do you just grind down the welds and paint em? Any info would be great!! heres the pics, enjoy!









Let me know what yall think. Oh and ive decided that im going to create my own color and call it tractor tipping orange

Oh, and it's probably going to take more than 80 feet of tube, probably upwards of 100 feet actually. For the roll cage I mean.

Yeah, it sucks. My friend used 80' on just building half an exo. Pretty much rear quarter exo into sliders into a front tube bumper. Actually, projectmayhem's jeep is the one I'm talking about. Check out his jeep to see what I'm talking about.
