Cage
Flex:
oops i lied to rear horizontal bar is shown.
calvynandhobbs:
Are you going to mount the spare in the bed that you are creating in the back end or are you gonna have it tied to the cage at an angle with the cross bars? Depending on the distances between bars you may not be able to get the tire inside the cage. Here are a couple pics of Tim's ZJ and how he mounted his 38.5" Baja Claw. He did an internal cage and mounted the spare tire in the back where the tailgate used to be.
Flex:
yea the mount for the spare is going to go on the angled rear X. the rear view mirror will be useless but at least i wount have any rear glass to break, when i back into trees
gearhead1985B:
you need to add a virtical rizer in the middle (see thick green lines ) and move the red bar with the x on it to where the orange line is and it is always good to add some door bars othe than that it looks like it will be a very strong cage and don't forget to add gussets
are you planning to add five point harnesses if so you need to add some horizontal bars across slightly below shoulder height
Flex:
yea no plans to add five point harness anytime soon but when and if i do decided to do so it will be pretty easy to just weld in horizontal bar onto the x that is going in behind the front seats.
