I see how you are... now that your bumper is practically in the mail you need a new mantra that you can live with for the next year or more.

Cage looks great Sol. Love the poly bushing mounts to the frame. Very nicely done.

Track bar, huh? You paying attention Todd? You'll probably have to add one to your's when you leaf spring the rear if you go with soft enough springs to get the long travel you're after. There's no free ride. Everything's a tradeoff.

Sean
Thanks Sean! The frame captures came out really slick and they will add a lot of strength to the cage. The A pillar capture is going to be a PITA as there is no room. BTW, Todd already has HIS people working on the suspension design for the 4-link setup.

Home from FC Fabrication... :)

I picked up my FJC today from Don @ FC Fabrication. The cage, traction bar and tube doors turned out awesome. Don is an artist when it comes to tube work!

Here are a few pics of the cage with the interior reinstalled. The cage and interior fit like a glove.

Traction bar pics

Here are a few pictures of the traction bar. Again, super clean and super beefy work. Don said to say thank you to Jason for building a killer cross member. He added the shackle to the rear tcase cross member. I stopped by the exhaust shop today, but they didn't have time to redo my exhaust. I'll get the exhaust replaced tomorrow or the next day.
