Are you looking to have someone build the exo for you? Or are you doing it yourself?

Depending on what state you're in...? If you're in Utah, go check out Factory Tubular. Their cages are awesome! And the guys there are really nice. Tell them Shannon sent ya and maybe they'll be REAL nice!

Really? I've never had a problem with their pricing! Personally, I trust their work. And when it comes to rollcages, that's what's important to me: not getting squished!!

i'll give them a try, before i build!!!
it wont hurt to try, but i'm cheap!!!!

i have a design ready i think....

As long as your checking with different places you might want to try RockLogic 4x4.

They did the cage in my CJ-7 and I am very happy with how it turned out.

It has paint now and looks even better.

how much did it cost???

 

[Floppy Hat]

It was very reasonable and the cheapest I could find.

PM I Lean or Vonski on this board and they can give you more info about their pricing.

Might want to check out Lee Matingly (sp?) He's just working out of his garage right now. He does great work. He's gonna be cheap to. I know he's working on a fj-40 right now. If you want his number let me know I'll put you in contact with him.

the top pic is my rig and the bottom is what it will be..roughly

this is a rough idea of what it will look like...
i first have to chop the top off, which wont happen for a while due to winter...i might need to drive it, and i dont want to freeze my nuts off...it wont have a tailgate and i will remove doors for wheeling, a small fiberglass top will also be fabed this summer..
so any ideas are still very welcome....
thanks to all
