To get a decent rollcage you're going to spend some money. Ive been looking for a cage a couple months now. There's a company in PA, JRS, great company and has the best prices thus for for a chromoly cage. I believe his 6pt welded in was around 2400 with labor. Seems like a lot until you get quotes else where. A local company in Fayetteville wanted just north of 3700 for a 6pt with labor. This is all quoted using chromoly and not mild steel, I'm going this route because of the obvious factor of strength and weight. A 4pt works too but every 4pt I've ran across uses a diagonal cross bar behind the seats for added strength which makes it near impossible to use the back seat.

If you sell or trade in your car in the next few years having a removable roll cage will be a plus. One look at a roll cage from a dealer or non-enthusiast and the car's value in their eyes goes down.

Don't do that....fix it before it falls off! I can't say anything, I still have my first truck.

I will fix it, but sooner or later it's going to wear out from age, etc. Then the repairs will be more expensive than the car. Then I'll sadly have to get a new one
