    For the Moab trip this year, the wife said she would like more than the standard hoop. So I built this.

    Looks great. Did you bend the tube yourself?

    Yes I bent it myself. The B hoop and kickers are stock 72-75 CJ5 2". A hoop, spreaders and dash bar are 1.75" .120 DOM. It's a basic copy of my Flatty cage that has survived a complete slow barrel roll. I will be adding some 1" dia tube gussets at the A & B pillars going to the spreader.

    How did you bend them? Do you have a bender or did you come up with something ingenious?

    I'm part owner in a Pro Tool 105HD tubing bender that we adapted an electric/hydro set up on it.
