    just buy a bolt in one, alot cheaper and they work just fine unless you plan to break into the 9's where you need one that is a bit more professional

    if you can't even spell roll cage right then i'd assume you can't weld one the proper way.

    welding in a rollcage is hard. if you want it to look good then u tig weld everything except where the bars meet the plates. operating the pedal of a tig welder with ur knees and elbow while laying on ur back is not easy, trust meet. get somone who know what they are doing to do it.
