Installing a cage into DWD's Explorer

[Brian1]

looks really good! What size tube did you use?

 

[Diff Whack Daddy]

Looking good Sir,

Now that that's all done the wife will let you come out and play right

It was a requirement prior to any off roading again. Tomorrow I load up and cruise off to Moab the following day.

We used four 20ft sticks of 1.75" X .120 wall for the hoops and main spreaders and then two 20ft sticks of 1.5" X .120 wall for support. Lots of cutting and notching.

Looks good. Let's just hope you won't have to use it.

That's the whole point. Once you have it, you'll never need it. It's like that one tool that you would never need on the trail until you forget to bring it that one time.

All done..

You missed a spot with the padding. Looks good.

Haha... looks like Kevin just ate the whole 5 gallons of his wifes beans!!

Nope, didn't miss it, just ran out. We did the important parts for Moab and I'll take care of the rest later.
