    Came right of the frame horns, replaced the rubber mounts with tubing, plated on top of the tubing, sandwhiched the cab with plate on the top, bolts at the corners of the plate and one right thru the center where the factory bolt was, there will also be a few other spots where it ties into the frame but still deciding where I want them. 1.5 120. wall to if anyone was wondering.

    One safety concern I had was the 2 bars behind the bucket seats that are straight up and down could be VERY dangerous! If those bars break in a roll over they would likely go right through you!

    I'd also be a little concerned about head clearance on those downtubes behind the driver/passenger.....especially with a helmet on. Otherwise, it looks good.

    Yeah checked the head clearance with a helmet on and its 3-4 inches all the way around and I believe score wants 3 inches of clearance. On those down tubes, how about putting some 1.5 in the corners to help distribuet the load in event of roll over. something like this.
