I really like your Rock Hard cage. I was in a wreck recently with my JK and I came out with just scratches. However, if my wife or anyone had been in the passenger seat the outcome would have been life ending. I just got lucky and it wasn't my time. God just wanted me to go down some more trails. I am serious about doing something to strengthen the sport bar upfront. If someone thinks their winshield will take care of a rollover show them a coulple of these pics. Your improvement could be lifesaving. By the way I talked about doing this last February when someone else installed this cage. On June the 3rd I tested the limits and found out that I need this kind of mod not just for pretty. I hope that no one here at the Forum goes through this kind of wreck. It stopped upside down on the highway with my head on the pavement with no top on it and the passenger side crushed. Here are some pics of what's left of my JK.
Bro, you need to post these pics in every thread dealing with a roll cage to remind people that anything, even a sport cage, is better than nothing. I'm extremely happy to hear you made it out ok.
BTW.....4Wheel Parts will accept their 20% off coupon (good till mid-Julyish) on the Rock Hard cage. I got mine for $480 + tax which is unheard of. In fact, when I talked directly to Rock Hard, they said that price was below the vendor cost. So if you're in the market for this....BUY NOW!!!

). But the rest of it blends in to me. I think because I used red to match the Jeep. I also removed the OEM stickers off the bottom of the visor which helps alot I think in not making you feel closed in from top to bottom (at least less than you already are).

The center bars kind of get taking use to. The first time I tried flipping someone off in traffic I smacked my knuckles against it (lesson learned ). But the rest of it blends in to me.

It really looks good, I'd image it gives a great sense of protection.

The coupon was posted in the upper right corner of the 4Wheel Parts ad in the latest issue of Four Wheeler. It kind of looks like a 'dog ear' on the corner of the page. They have been running one for the least 3 months in each issue. I think the code is something like 4WOR0709.....try that or see if one of the 4Wheel reps on the forum will honor it.
