The overkill guys don't do anything simple. This is thier front and rear axles called Atomic Axles. They were parked behing WOL at SEMA this year.

These were some of the photos I took of it.

Wow, I'd love to see the internals of those atomic axles, the cage looks cool, but I'm a pretty big fan of the Rockhard cage, was it pretty hard to install? Also, do they offer an option for a behind the front seat bar to properly anchor a 5 point harness?

Yes, they also offer a front seat harness bar to support the use of harnesses. I believe it's listed on their website.

Yes they do


And both OR Fab and Rockhard sport cage are not HARD to install. Just time consuming. But the result afterward is worth of the labor.

I really like the milder cages, but the OverKill one is sick, I just can't see myself cruzying the beach with that beast around me.

I have the OR-FAB. Love it! I don't like RockHard's clamp-style connections.
