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.

 

Very nice. I really like that rear bumper and the sliders.

Are you going into business?

 

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).

 

Looks really nice!!

Does the bedcage tie into the frame rails? It looks to be wider than the frame on top, but cant see if it connects under the bed.

 

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.

 

looks nice

 

very nice work, i really like them good job.

 

Nice work. I too like the look of that rear bumper.

 

Very nice work, I really like the bars and sliders.

 

How much did it cost you to biuld that rear bumper? Are going to make a front bumper to match?

 

Looks good so far. I might add another cross-brace towards the rear though.

 

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.

 

rear bumper is sick. nice work.

 

I love it.... I love it all looks sweet dude.

 

very nice, i wish i had the resources to fab my own stuff

 

Doesn't everybody? I wish I had alot of things to HELP me fab more stuff
