The roll cage was just bolted to the tub. With the condition of the tub, it was very sketchy for any kind of real protection. I didn't think it best to race it in the shape it was in, as I would have someone else in the vehicle with me and didn't want to risk anyone's safety. Now we have A LOT of work to do!!! Anyone wanna do some fab work??? Got plenty to do now...
We removed the cage, unbolting it and cutting some of the welds to the floorboard. Then we cut the entire rear section out. Saving weight and making it easier to work on. We will run a firewall in the place where a factory bulkhead would go for a 1/2 cab.
This is how it sits now. I think I am going to lower the rear a few inches. The spring perches are just tacked in. Shouldn't be too hard to do.
