Well i have been seeing many roll cages people are building. Most of them you cant put a stock body on. Mine is a little different but works more then expected. I stood on this cage to see if it would hold any weight and it held 210 pounds :)

Thanks! I am very happy with it being a prototype but at the same time its a prototype and has many flaws. Right now in the making will be a roll cage and front/back bumpers. It will be a 3 piece kit. The roll cage will be separate from the front and rear bumpers. Here is the kicker for ya. The front bumper will have suspension :eek: The reason why is because whats the worst about hitting something at a good speed with the front bumper. It is the jolt it gets from a solid hitting a solid. The suspension will absorb most of the impact for a softer hit. Im most cases its not only a broken A arm or front shock. The motor and or any heavy items bolted down thrushes forward on a hard impact.
 
Update. Roll cage tested and saves MT and Jetpro :) After my MT flew as high as a ranch style house it landed on the front roof towards the windshield some what sideways. If I didnt have this roll cage I can guarantee my pipe would of bent under the truck and smashed the motor up. The roll cage did sustain a small easy fixable damage though. 2 of my welds broke off and lost them parts but like i said I can make new and reweld it.
