Custom Full Roll Cage
Hello Everyone,
Has anyone built their roll cage running the A-Pillar bars through the top of the dash? Something like this would be more integrated into the body of the Truck...I am thinking about adding a full cage to my truck but havnt found anyone that has done this....? Thanks for your thoughts and pictures!!! Stoime |

Re: Custom Full Roll Cage
You might check over on CK5.com. There are more trucks built for off-road with full cages. I think I recall someone notching the dash for the cage, but I don't know about through the top of the dash.

Re: Custom Full Roll Cage
We did that when we built our '85. A pillar bars went down through the speaker holes (in the corners of the dash).
Sorry - no pictures. K

Re: Custom Full Roll Cage
I've seen one done on YouTube, don't remember the title though. It was a killer cage, I'd like to see yours when it's done.
