a local certified welder could install.
good luck in your search

By made I mean I want to drop the truck off and something custom built from the ground up, not a kit anyone can buy. The cage would need to be fully functional, with frame ties and maybe nhra legal, i say maybe because i don't want to have to climb over the side rails every time i get in the truck. That's why I liked the cage smitty's built so much is because it's down low.I really would like to make it myself but I don't have the means to bend the tubing, have the welder and chop saws and everything but the bender. I could buy the manual bender for 500 bucks or something but at the same time I don't have the knowledge of actually every having built a cage.
