Behind the Seat Roll Cage

Well spent the entire afternoon at a local custom shop in Denver, they are going to make a behind the seat removable Roll cage, using mine as the proto type, hope to have some early pictures next week.

These will be available in various sizes steel or melted coors cans Brushed look, painted, powdered coated or what ever you like.

Re: Behind the Seat Roll Cage

Is it going to mount through the floor to the frame? Or is it going to be mostly for looks?

Re: Behind the Seat Roll Cage

that's kinda funny. I've been talking with AJ at BentUp and Jason Demello about producing something very similar. It is intended to provide a place to mount or strap things down, like a CO2 tank, Hi-lift, shovels, and stuff like that. you can also unlatch it and use it as a table or workbench on the trail.They should be ready in a month or so. Its taking a little longer than we thought because we are trying to find a way to get it to the public cheap.

Good. The first thing I thought was that, and I see I'm not the only one. I can't tell you how many 'Roll Cages' I've seen in classic Broncos that are nothing more than show. What's the point if you're not anchoring it to the frame? Would be interested to see results. I really think you are rapidly (if not already) approaching the "Most BadA$$ FJ" award on this Forum.

PM me with details on that one, the shop I went too says they would rather wait until winter, not sure I want to wait.
