    Every race car I've ever been in I've hit my helmet on the cage at some point. I rebuilt the roof on my current car and still can hit helmet in extreme cases.

    Roll Cage just got here!

    I guess I’m still missing the roof panels, but they’re coming soon per TE.

    Got my pro eagle mounted in the bed of the tundra today too

    Also tried the chat GPT sketch thing. Kinda neat.

    thanks guys! Yeah he’s super quick. It’s not all totally burned in yet, some of it’s just tacked together. But he’s been working on it in his free time after work.

    Not until I bend an OEM one. Just want this thing to be cushy when I take it out shooting our whatever. I’ll take the fun truck out if I’m gonna bend something

    Did the Tundra have the 3” OEM lift kit noted across the top of the alignment print out?

    Waiting on pics, but the cage is fully welded in and done. Just waiting on the roof panel kit to get here. He also is gonna start working on the tie ins for the bed cage and front shock hoops. He’s also gonna add a cross member between my rear shackles for me too.
