rec on roll cage in Bay Area

[navi]

I would really appreciate a recommendation for a shop that can install a Baillie roll cage in my half cab.
I'm in the SF bay area.
Cheers

What part of the bay are you in initially? I'm sure you can travel a bit, but if it's closer to you to begin with, so much the better!
Got a couple of experts on Broncos down here in the southland (San Jose and Morgan Hill) that are a bit busy at the moment, but for a "hopefully" smaller project like a cage that might not be too much.

Another expert shop in the northland (Petaluma-ish) and one in the eastland (Tracy-ish in the hills) that can do it also.

Good luck. Let us know your hoped-for range of travel.
(and yes, you may already have told me, but I forget that kind of stuff pretty quickly these days)

4wp in Oakland.. do they do welding? honestly have never thought about it nor questioned if they did or not

Can the Bailie cage be attached to the frame?
I think it would be difficult since the back of the cage doesn't extend down to the floor.

Not sure about the cage, but years ago when I dealt with the 4WPW stores regularly, the Oakland store and the Sacramento store had great shop guys working there and they could do most anything. Installing a cage would be a piece of cake, depending on the design and their willingness to try something they don't sell.
And assuming the crew is still good and that they haven't changed their overall service requirements in the last 10 years.

Deetz Off Road up the pass off of Grant Line and Altamont Pass Roads, is not too far out of your range. It's more than 30 miles I would expect, but at least it's almost a straight shot!

cool, I'll check with them.

There used to be a body shop on San Leandro Blvd that did custom work, they added shoulder belts to my previous bronco and reattached the cage with welds. Don't see them around now though.

I wouldnt let the 4wp down here air up my tires. Everyone I know that has had work done there had to have it redone somewhere else.

There is also http://www.arabiasoverkill.com/ in Campbell. It's about 40 miles from you. They do more jeep stuff, but can do anything.

Take a Vacation and drive to wild horses or toms and get it done while you go fishing. Get something for your money.

Or find out if Gordon Bailie is going to be at the Roundup and make him install it!
Could be a during-show event.

Actually we don't do work at our facility anymore, so that's out as a general rule. But still love to have you come by sometime. Definitely try to make the Roundup if you can. Bronco or not.

kman mentioned Arabia's and yes, they can pretty much do anything. And if they run into trouble with a part (not likely with yours, but just sayin') they can fix it on site rather than wait for some replacement.
They build from-scratch vehicles, so not much is going to stop them.

Lots of choices. Definitely PM members 904Bronco and BajaBronco here too.
