Finally! Cage pictures inside... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Tough to take cage pics with the top on, but I did the best I could. Thanks again Alexis, couldn't have done it without you. I will powdercoat it and get some good rollbar padding on it when the top comes off in the spring.

Couldn't be happier!

The welder wasn't happy with the spreader up front, so he made his own to spread the bars out! The glove box actually opens!

Looks good. I've seen a few trucks where they trimmed the corner off the glove box. Sounds like you found yourself a good resource down there...

I was going to PM you to see if you ever got it installed. Looks awesome. just wait till you get the top off and go cruzing.

I think this should make everyone riding feel more secure. I've seen rollovers in these removeable top rigs before, often flattened to the top of the bed. I'm getting to old and big to squish down that low anymore. Very nice setup. Smittybuilt always made good products. Someday I may share pics of a Ford with similar setup.

That does look pretty damn good. Nice job.
