You should have a roll cage.  There are many vendors that make them and call them sport cages because they can't afford the liability that comes with a failure.

If you are just starting to look into roll cages, you either need to purchase one from a reputable builder or learn about static and dynamic loads, materials strengths, and structural design.  I reccomend the former.

Rockrat is on here sometimes and he has a great reputation for building custom cages.  Maybe he'll chime in.  He also gives a lot of free advice.  And he has his own bbs at http://ratsden.proboards19.com/index.cgi.  I know you can catch him there if you want.

You should also ask around 4x4 shops in your area about cage builders.  There is probably a reasonable builder nearby so you don't have to worry about shipping and they can build it in your rig.

I also reccomend Scott Yach at Rock 4x Fabrications. Here is his web site. I got my cage from him and love it
