Just got my Bailie Bilt cage in. Love it. Gordon did a superb job. He is a very genuine fellow and pleasant to talk to. He called to take notes as to what I wanted before building it.
I am not a welder, but the fit and finish looked top notch.
For those considering it, it weighed in about 300 lbs. It fit fine with my electric wiper cover,visors, and hard top. Gordon will tell you that doesn't mean his will fit EVERY Bronco due to slight variations (patch panels, body twisting, etc.), but it fit mine pretty well. The emergency brake pedal is usable, but it will block the glove box door. I had already done the modification listed on the Bronco Ohio site, but I will have to cut some more off the hinge to get it to drop. I have not yet done the windshield stiffeners, but it doesn't look like it will be too much trouble with the tabs Gordon welded in. There are four bolts on each of the A pillar and C pillar legs and two bolts on the double B pillar tubes (which run across the floor on the Custom Family cage)
My shipping ran about $170. The only issue I had with this order was with the shipping company and I spoke with Gordon about it as to prevent any potential problems with any of his future clients.
I would not hesitate to order another cage from Gordon.
