update time.. had my roll cage sitting in garage for about 3-4 months now so ive set about fitting it now.
first i welded in piece of angle iron i made into corner behind the front seats then i made plates and welded them onto the 2 legs of the roll cage drillied holes then i could bolt in the front 2 legs.
Image
Image
my grandad then made brackets to weld to the arches. took ages to make as wanted the curve on them to sit perfect onto the arch
Image
then slight problem encountered is that cage is quite far from arch so it will need to be extended.
Image
Image
thats all for now, will be more updates after i finished the cage :)
