Curious to know if anyone has made a half cage for an 80? I'm going to make one to go just behind the front seat belts, bolted through the floor and strengthenned onto the chassis. Be interested to see any pics or thoughts on what's been done before.

I thought it was low on the priority list as well until I watched Shane Barlows very slow roll over on the weekend, and how much damage it caused. Will post pics once it's done. It will be a removable one, so I can still use my rig day to day without bars being in the way.
