How to fit 141' of tube in a 94 ex

[Michael]

I got the ex back this week from having the roof cut and the roll cage put in. The cage is tied to the frame in six places and has seat, harness, toolbox and tire mounts built into it. Now I just need for work to slow down so I can hit the trails and hopefully not test out the cage:roll:

Tool Box Mount

There are a few more pics from other angles in my gallery.

hmmmmm...something looks different from when I saw it at tellico..if I could only figure out what it was....

Think you could post a pic of the tube running beside, infront of, around, thru the dash or whatever you did?

 

[Michael]

Thanks for the compliments guys. It is coming along according to plan rather nicely.

Bob: there is not a dash bar for the time being. It was determined that that area of the truck is plenty strong, and putting in a dash bar would make removal of the dash extremely difficult when it comes time for the next stage of the build. At that time, however, one will be put in for both strength and gauge holding.

 

[bipolarbob]

so you just stopped right above the dash?

 

[Michael]

Bob, no it goes around the dash to the frame through the floor, I'll try to get a picture of it to explain better.

I think I am ready to cut now Sure would make for a lighter tow. What did they use to cut the roof?

Look awesome! That's what I want to do but from the back glass only, keeping the back seats. What size tubes are you using?

Again, kicks as*!

Michael,

The lady that does my custom canvas can hook you up if you need anything done in canvas. She is really good.
