Bedcage, sliders, rear bumper on a 91' Pickup
I recently built this cage, sliders, and bumper for a friend. The cage will eventually be an exo, so even though it looks 'different' it won't affect strength. Even the way it is now with a full X-brace it would stand up to a good beating. The cage is tied to the frame, sliders welded on in 4 places, and the bumper and cage are tied together. I will get some pictures of my truck in the next few days posted up. I have just gotten it driveable again since 2 months ago.

Thanks, I have been building stuff on the side for a few years. I have a full time job, I just do fab stuff on the side (wish I could do it full time though).

Sure does, connects to the bumper in the rear, frame in front. Once it is all finished it will be a much stronger package than it already is, but that will be awhile.

Well I charged him $300 I think, but it obviously did not cost that much in materials.
There will be another brace near the back of the cage once he decides where he wants to put the spare tire mount.
