OJTV8CJ thanks for the intrest in helping.  to answer your question of what am i willing to do or pay.  i'm willing to work by your side doing all the hard dirty work of course.  fabrication is what i want to on my cj.  i just lack a lot of the tools.  i'm getting my dad's old Lincon 240volt stick welder.  but, i've never welded.  i just bought the full cage ford381stroker had listed.  i wouldn't mind swinging by some time to pick your brain on seat mounting and frame tie-in.  or i can just throw it on my trailer when it's in one piece and come to a meeting after i join.

everyone i've met parting my xj have been great people.  i guess i'm going to be a 2 club guy.  not to mention the brain trust of jeep guys on this site is hands down to none.

and keep the info coming the cage is bought not finished.  thanks

Junkyard (Geoff) does really good work and did a kickass job on the cage for my yamaha. I would feel confident having brad do the work too though as I have seen a couple rigs he has done. So my recomendations go like that. Either way ya go be ready to wait a bit.
