Or get frame stiffeners and cut my floor so that the dom goes down and attaches to that? How does that usually work? I've been looking at the threads on here with.cages but i haven't really seen any in depth pictures of where it all mounts to?
A few cage pix in here. It's only 2 pages.

Thanks buddy. I'm not out to have the best of anything. I've just gotten to the point where CF is kinda my diary for this project. I really like showing every step that gets done and there is no such thing as high jacking on this thread because I like to here from others and see what they have going also. Just fun to share with people from all over. This is the first time I've ever even messed with forums and still don't understand half the lingo that people mention to me. LOL. But glad you like it because that's what its all about and I'm enjoying it as well. Thanks again for the encouraging words.

I didn't plan on that either.. lol.. But I do absolutely believe in being prepared.. We most likely would have died or at least been badly injured, if it weren't for this well built & thought out cage.

No no. The barrels will have supressors that are ported. I may put LEDs in barrels that can strobe.
