Full Cage ideas...

Starting to get back to working on my full cage again. I have the main structure all together but I am working on the tubes to tie the seats in both front and back. I am also wanting to put at least 3 point belts in the rear. I would like to see some photos of how others have done this. I have not welded in a brace from the center pillar to the back yet. Trying to decide where to put it so I can connect the shoulder belt to it. OR... do I need to add another tube for this purpose.

I have the fold and tumble seat in the back. If anyone has come up with some trick way of mounting this so it still folds up out of the way I would be interested in seeing it.

Any photos of cool cage ideas are welcome. I am in no hurry and could do about anything at this point.

I will be out in the garage a bit this weekend, if I can, I will try to get som pics of the brackets I made for the F&T seat. The brackets that come from WH or was it Tom's...I think it was Toms...anyway, I believe they sell the same seat. I will also get pics of how I mounted the rear 3 pt belts to the cage. I will try to post them up by the end of the w/e...PM me if I fail to.

Cheers!

What I started to say, but got distracted...I mean, what is work doing--trying to get in the way of me and CB, GAAAWHD...back on point. Toms, I believe is where I got the seat...it came with brackets for mounting it to the floor, ie, you have to drill holes. I still have them somewhere...I believe. Anyway, I wanted "everything" tied to the cage, seats, Tuffy boxes, console, seatbelts, etc...so I put in some rectangular tube (1X2") from front to back and made brackets similar to the ones that came with the seat, to adapt the seat to the cage. I also made a more substantial bracket for the quick-release. Of course, the seatbelts mount to the cage. Pics to follow.

Thanks for the props.
