To build my RC's roll cage, I used the factory roll bar as a starting point and just added on. I built this cage in preparation for the 2003 Easter Jeep Safari. Rolling is always possible, and I didn't trust the factory roll bar by it's self.
Also, I needed better seats than the factory, wore out, junk. I bought some drag racing seats from Summit Racing. These work best mounted to a roll cage.
The cage isn't totally finished at this point, but it is better than nothing. Still to do is: buy some 4-point racing harnesses and weld mounts to the cage, weld in a triangulation bar in the factory roll bar to stiffen it, and secure the cage to the frame. It's just bolted to the body right now.
But here it is.
