Well, got a Model 3 Bender. Guess the next project will have to be a Juggy. I'll make sure and setup the bender with the air over hydraulic system first. I just wanted to improve on the Jeep's rollover survivability a little until I finally do build a Juggy. Started with a radiator hoop...

I like the shape and perportions of the grill guard, any thoughts on bracing it back to the shock mounts or forward to the frame horns? Seen a couple guards fold at Neuroc due to lack of bracing.
Thats turned out to be one hell of a rig.

Thanks.. Yeah, actaully I'm gonna remove the fenders and run a tube from the hoop back thru the body into the front cage leg. Will also probably run another tube down from that to the frame to become the new upper shock mount. I also plan on throwing alot of gussets at the whole thing when I'm done adding tube. Yesterday, I cut out my old cage spreaders (they were low enough for me to hit with my nogging), moved them inboard a bit, and rebent them to give more headroom.
Next up...remove fenders, remove windshield frame, do a dash bar and then some exo skeleton stuff down the sides and around back.
