exo cages are spendy, tube alone for a 4runner gonna be 2-500 bucks depending on size, and hrew or DOM. The figure in 50 bends, and 30 spots to weld, and your prob looking around a grand total to have on built, esp if custom and to your design.

Mine isn't finished yet and I have a grand in it. 500 more to go.

I get 1.75 .120 hrew for 2 bucks a foot, lil less around 1,65 a foot if buy more than 100ft. Thats what Im using for my cage, and keeping it minimalist, not covering fenders or bed, hoping to keep it under 200 bucks, but dunno

If your willing to leave it in San Diego for a bit I know a great cage builder that is very reasonably priced.

BPINAZ · « **Reply #16 on:** Oct 25, 2011, 05:24:29 PM »

You're doing the right thing by researching first, and having a cage built by a professional.

CCM Runner · « **Reply #17 on:** Oct 29, 2011, 05:00:55 PM »

Thanks. Yes I built it. Trying to keep it minimal

builttoabuse · « **Reply #18 on:** Oct 30, 2011, 11:33:36 AM »

CCM Runner · « **Reply #19 on:** Nov 03, 2011, 07:13:27 PM »

I think mine is plenty strong.1 1/2 .120 wall dom. All the. Research I did told me that triangulation is the key and of course good tight notches and strong welds of course.
