Alright, so once I get a new motor in my DD, I'm going to start taking apart my YJ so I can work on the cage and assorted other stuff that needs to be done before I can swap my axles in and such...
One of the things I've been pondering the past few weeks while I've been driving the rig around, is how I can add some A-pillars to the existing factory cage and still be able to use my full doors. My goal is to beef up what's there and still be able to use the hard top and full doors if I feel so inclined in the winter. I really can't see how I will be able to fit some 1.5" or 1.75" tubing in the "pocket" between the dash and the doors and still be able to use the window crank to roll the window up and down.
Seems like kind of a silly question, but it's been bugging the hell out of me and I can't figure out how to search for something so specific on Pirate... I want to see how you've done this and get some ideas. I suppose the window crank handles could be shortened, but IME those are always made out of some cheap pot metal or something that can't be welded, so I'm not sure how that would work... gimme some ideas.
:haha:
