sorry dude, GF has the camera on holidays.
so far i have just welded a plate to the bottom of the pipe and bolted it through the floor. will make conectors to the frame and bolt them through the floor to the roll cage mount. should be even more solid then. it doesn't move at all now.

it was my first cage and it tuned out good so far.

doesent look like there is much headroom for the rear passengers :'(
this was the same problem that brent had in designing the cage he built for mine. the front works good , the back didnt work at all. i'v been toying with redesigning the top to give more headroom so a rear cage would work. we'll see :-\

I have pics of how Mike's cage mounts to the floor(but no measurements, I don't think they're needed for any shop), if he doesn't mind I will post them up for all to see, I'll send him a PM to find out.

i'm 5'8" and my head doesn't touch. plus, there is never really anybody back there except for my kids, or tools
plus, to make it fit under the soft top or hard top it has to come down int eh back like it has

I asked Mike for these pics a while ago, I was going to have one built for my white truck, but I had some body mount problems and now have a new truck, so I will be starting on this again  ;D
I specifically like how the front section is mounted to the upper floor, can't really be tripped over, and in the rear that definatly saves all your storage space.

It looks like that just covers the rear.  How much protection in a rollover do you guys think the standard top offers the front seat passengers?  I've seen pics of trackicks from high speed rollovers and they are pretty well mangled.  But a wheeling rollover would be a low speed roll.  I wonder how it would hold up?

it is not done yet, the front is getting a half exo that will tie into the rear cage.
i have seen a few kicks roll over and the top is usually fine. seen a few that didn't even break the windshield.

I think it would be much better than nothing like in the rear(stock) it's nice to have 'something' to help protect rear passengers in a slow-motion flop over.
