I had to go back in my thread to see where I left off. Have pics downloaded so here we go.

When I last left off we (Pettigrew and myself) decided the cage was not safe with poor weld penetration in many areas. Cage and floors cut out, new firewall, floors and tunnel. Now time for the new cage...and yes the roof needed to come off to get good welds all the way around.

We pushed the cage further out so he had to make some mods to the frame

Much better, especially on the A pillar bar!

And is that a RSRT box I see on the bench?!?! :D

Yes it is...decoupled 3 link.

That cage though
 
Can't believe you had to cut the roof off..but it will be rigid for sure
