I've been thinking about doing an exo-cage on my tj. Because i know that sooner or later it will prolly end up on its side. I kinda want to protect that 32,000 mile body and glass... My buddy's dad has his personal shop in phoenix and told me he would do any design exo i want with whatever tubeing for $600. That sounds like a pretty good deal to me but i have no history with tube work. all opinions welcome....

get it. I dig different shit.
exos are cool. dunno if I have seen any on a jeep in person.
That is a good price. Consider the DOM tubing is going to run anywhere from $3.35 to $5.00 a foot depending on what you use, not to mention the labor to cut, bend and weld the cage.
If I were you I'd get it done before he backs out.

I don't think there's anything you can do for the windsheild frame.
I wrapped mine in armor and square tubing, I like it, but several here are after light weight. I don't know how to post a pic, I'd be glad to send some via Y.

Tell me where I can get DOM tubing for $3.50 to $5.00 a foot--I see more like $8.00-$10.00 everywhere I look. I just bought 20 lf of 1.75" x .120" HREW tubing for about $3.31/ lf.

Well, that 1.75" HREW, along with some scrap heavywall rect tubing I bought is gonna be most of my new windshield frame.

I'd like some pics of that. I'd do some protection, if I could.
i plan on doing my MJ with an Exterior cage as well. protect the ride not just the riders.the only part with mine im worried about is mounting it into the unibody.

It may be a few weeks with the rain, snow, and me working late, but Lord willing I'll git er done, and post it up.
