Is it going to be an internal cage or exo? Have you checked out this thread? https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f67/to...-cages-126612/

 

External. I have a chop top 2 door

 

Be advised!!!!
Not my jeep!!!
Found the picture on l&l fabrication website!!!

But i did do the yellow overlay in paint one boring day, so the exo cage design is mine. Kinda what i thought after looking at a few different designs!!!!

 

here is a cool design I like

 

ok well heres a couple ideas for cage design. dont mind my *****en MS paint skills



also for cage design it is important to make triangles. triangles are stronger than squares

 

I looked at that red exo and 2 others to make mine design. I have a Roof design to from a different XJ exo picture. And tube door designs from 2 other pictures.

 

damn my MS paint skills put to shame

 

lol Yea i was aware of triangles and X's. The Roof design i have in mind is a circle with trangles around it connecting around the rain gutters.
(Design for roof is from the e-net also modded to what i like)

 

PS cant see you MS paint picture

 

I do belive the red XJ roof has the circle with just straight tube connecting and four corners and middle of rain gutters.

 

Talk to huddab about cages. He in the vendor section and has built them before

 

The exterior portion of my cage is about 160 ft of tube. Internal bracing will prob add anther 80 ft.

 

Yea I dont have anything but the drawin and an idea. I figure 300 ft should do if I ever do it

 

Wow How much does that weigh

 

Personally, if you want cheap and safe in the same cage you need to visit T&J Performance.

1: It costs less than $800. You don't need a bender and it fits perfectly.

2: You won't have a hideous ineffective exo cage.

3: It'll hold up nicely and look good.

The only thing I would suggest is a bit more triangulation on the inside, primarily at the b-pillars.
