Why ive seen pipe cages hold up to just as much abuse as tubing. Run wat you have access too at least he has a cage.

Do you think you'll need additional bracing behind the cab?

I like how it's tight to the body.

When I do mine, I hope to be as close!!

Looks good... It is nice and close to the cab. I would have done the top fender tube alittle bit different so the headlight wasnt blocked.  :twocents:

I like the rest tho  :beerchug:

About How much would you charge including materials for some tubing that runs from rock slider over wheel well to front bumper, and slider to rear bumper over wheel, if you know what I mean.

the only problem is the dies have the wrong radius (or cheap dies) and that is why you had a problem with the bends flatening the matterial i love the design and great craftsmanship on the cage but this is the one time the carpenter can blame the hamer

Trust me dude I want a bender so bad I can taste it but with some things that are going on in my life right now it is just not the greatest time to invest in a bender but thanks for the input.

So just wondering how much time do you think you have wrapped up in bending it all?

I have acces to a hydrolic bender but only untill june and i dont know if i could get enough cash to buy tubing. I can use a HF benders pretty good but I wasn't sure if it'd be worth it.
89 extra cab stock on 1 tons.
83 rolled with built toy axles
92 2wd DD
first gen cab

Check out the build.

well worth it but if you have access to a hyrdo that I would get crackin and use it for all your main bends then if you dont finish in time you can use old faithful.
