I would say the closed in one if you want to run lights. If no, I would do the single tube.

Could finish the closed one with sheet metal and cutouts for lighting.

its been too long since the last update. Lots of progress but a lot more to go. front cage is almost done, steering is hooked up!, getting closer to getting the truck running again.

Updates:

All tubing is painted, batteries installed, main power wiring is done, front junction box built and the truck runs!







Went ahead and cleaned up the interior cage finally. There was so much old glue and headliner stuck on. Added some 80mil Kilmat to help with the sound too.



Built out the H pipe and exhaust system, though I have to pull it back out and add some resonators it’s a little loud...



Then on to the tilt cage. Started getting it framed out. What a pain in the butt. Still have some figuring to do but at least the front one piece is attached to the truck now.

How do you get the motor out if it ever blows down the road? I guess tear it down in place and remove the block? Beautiful build , she looks sick.
