Nothing to special got an S&W cage for the hatch figured id post some pics up. This stuff is a lot more time consuming than i had thought. Had my driver seat in and out about 40 times to check and double check things. So far things are going pretty good. BREETIME stopped by to lend a much needed hand so thanks to him. He also took some pics. Some parts ![http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c114/mindless311/carwork002.jpg](http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c114/mindless311/carwork002.jpg) Crap i pulled out ![http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c114/mindless311/carwork001.jpg](http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c114/mindless311/carwork001.jpg) Head liner sitting on the hood of the jeep ![http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c114/mindless311/carwork006.jpg](http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c114/mindless311/carwork006.jpg) Lining things up ![http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c114/mindless311/carwork023.jpg](http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c114/mindless311/carwork023.jpg) Fit is pretty good ![http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c114/mindless311/carwork025.jpg](http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c114/mindless311/carwork025.jpg) ![http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c114/mindless311/carwork028.jpg](http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c114/mindless311/carwork028.jpg) And the typical weld shot ![http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c114/mindless311/carwork030.jpg](http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c114/mindless311/carwork030.jpg) ^^^ As you see it doesnt seem like a straight line but that is due to the fact that i needed to fit the couture of the car so i had to pound the plates and what not into place. It sucks i have to stop every inch or so to work the plate into place and it makes the welds look ugly. Plates took up more time than anything to get right. Still have a pile of work to do but should only take another night or two to finish it up. All in all turning out pretty well for my first attemp at putting a cage in a car. Ill post more when i do more. ---
