[QUOTE="dja410, post: 1256772"] From what ive seen alot of these cage failures are breaking and tearing right after the weld. Billy bobs sells those nice little lazor cut gussets. From the looks of things these gussets would help keep the joint nice and ridged. I know they dont fit in every corner but if you take some steel and cut out triangles to fit in all the jointed areas and weld them up would you guys think that would help out alot or is it just a waste of time. Those lazor cut gussets at billy bobs are only 4 bucks a peice. I put them all over the place whene i build crossmembers,bumpers,any kind of tube work they look nice and seem to help with strength.
