Two "thank you's"

Unread post by DOUG »

A huge thank you to John C. for letting us use his tubing notcher today.

A ginormas thank you to Kurt for allowing me to grace his presence while we modified the cage from my Scrambler.
I brought the cage to casa Klopp where we removed the angle streamers, cut and notched them so they could be welded in more towards the middle. Then we modified grab handles I had purchased from Poison Spyder. We also added bungs on the b-pillar uprights so I can add 3 point seat belts. Kurt did all the welding!!

No pics, cage is already at the sandblasters.

Actually, here is a before pic, before it was removed from the Jeep. It will be painted to match when it comes back.

The blue is a rustoleum rattle can. The yellow will be gone soon enough.

Yeah, it's an automatic, having never wheeled with one it's going to be different.

It's bolted to the factory holes in the rear (Scrambler has extra bracing from the factory where the step up is in the floor.)Iit's not bolted to the floor in the front, it's bolted to the rock rails via a heavy bracket. The rails are then bolted to the frame.

I'll get pics when it's reinstalled.
