OR-Fab is a top notch company and I love my cage so far. I have an 2011 so the original cage didn't fit properly over the dash called them uo and they realized the issue and are actually producing me a custom cage to work in my rig. I can't wait to get my new cage in so I can run my lower streamer bar but for now it is still an awesome cage as is. These guys really do care about their customers and for that they will get my return business and support.

Thanks for input. Yeah I like the psc roll cage but a lot more expensive. Going to check on someone custom making one. Anyone know of someone good in Phoenix?

OR-FAB ALL THE WAY. I Love my sport cage it fits great and mounts all the way to the floor. Im local if you want to check it out just let me know. Ill post some pics shortly. PM Yates, he is a great guy and they are a local company out of prescott. I have been to their facility and it is amazing. There is nothing better than supporting a local company and buying a product MADE IN THE USA!

Weld in is expensive and unless you are planning to do something like the King of Hammers or race across the desert at 60+ MPH it's simply not cost effective. Besides to do it right you need to go through the dash meaning you end up losing things like air ducts, speakers, etc. For most (everyone needs to decide for themselves) a bolt on like the Rockhard4x4 or OR-Fab is most you'll ever need. For us we choose the OR-Fab and have been really impressed with it (doesn't scrap the door like all the Rockhard cages do) and it has an option to mount to the floor providing some extra support. Just my

Sorry no great poser shots but here's one on the trails.
