I'm 6'3" and from experience i would hate that cage. Mainly the front hoop because it comes down and crowds your leg and foot room. It is possible to come down to the dash and then switch to plate to aleviate the foot/leg room problem. Very similar to the way some cages are on a TJ when the tube stops at the dash and then converts to plate and follows down beside the dash. Nice shop :)
Pretty weak by mounting only to the body? We always used brackets under the body and attached to the FRAME of the vehicle. Certainly better than an old rusty body for mounting a cage. After all, it is YOUR head it's protecting!
I've always loved those old jeeps. Three problems: I'm 6'4" (I didn't know you could move the seat back like that though), everyone else wants one and prices are a little nuts, and around here these old jeeps are so rusty you'd be lucky if it doesn't break into multiple pieces on the first bump.
Yea same for this guy, he is 6'2 and it was really uncomfortable for him. Its small for sure. And yes, other folks have said these are all rusted out most of the time... this one is in really nice shape over all
Are you going to notch the other side so that the front seats are equal setback? That and the the lack of tube at the top of the rest hoops looks kind of ?
Nice work. Them old jeeps are fun on their wheels but not so much on their tops. Roll cage is sure going to make it safer. I have to agree on the fuel tank placement with some other viewers. I would move it underneath with a skid plate. Not only safer but comfort also.
lol, I offered to weld them up, or make some stainless plates to cover it with his family name on it, so we will come up with something for it. I have already done some other little plates on it!
Yeah, you're right, however, saying it wrong is so common, it's accepted by everyone but arrogant Jeep snobs and those who always have to assert they know everything to feel better about themselves. My family name is Swedish but the pronunciation changed when we moved and became Americans because no American is going to know how to pronounce it correctly, so why try to force it? If you knew anything about etymology you'd understand the natural evolution of words. Look up the history of the month name February. You'll learn it's been pronounced many different ways through history and that nobody says it correctly because it's nearly impossible with American English. Another is Porsche. Only the rich who own them or those who envy the rich who own them add the soft ā at the end as the Germans do. In their language that's how it's naturally pronounced, but in American English it's incorrect. Besides, it's sounds better the American way. Imposing dialects on another culture's language is absurd because it leads to comments like yours putting someone down for doing absolutely nothing wrong. He obviously didn't give you the attention you wanted, but I'm sure it annoyed him for a bit. Why do that to someone you don't know? If it's just fun for you, please get help that's not healthy and it's borderline psychotic. Go study etymology instead. You could use it and it's better to educate yourself than be an Internet troll.

That thing looks like a jungle gym
Dude, it’s a roll cage. Plug weld it
Was he ok with you drilling 6 holes in the wrong place o the back 🤣😃😄 good work gr8 video
lol, I offered to weld them up, or make some stainless plates to cover it with his family name on it, so we will come up with something for it. I have already done some other little plates on it!
@@turbocobra looked spot on mate nice to see an insite to all the different jobs you do
Very cool project. Why did you choose to TIG it, rather than MIG it?
I tig weld everything I can. Most roll cages in race cars and competitive vehicles are tig welded
Damn front of roll bar are in the way of your feet
Like the screens for the kiddies in the back. Was that part of the kit or your addition? Thanks for sharing
Those are Molle plates and I sketched those up and cut them on the cnc table and welded them on.
@@turbocobra good addition for riding the kids around the farm. Looks good
What type of professional do I look for when it comes to this type of work?
Any race car shop can handle this..
nice job but the fuel tank looking ugly
I wouldn't of done that
Totally fuck that jeep
