Spec ops roll cage

[fnpurist]

Has anyone ever seen these roll cages for sale? id love to put one on my m998

Mfg by MSG...seen more on IDF trucks. But I know a guy who has one, or one like it for sale.
but it is in no way cheap...

What do these run as I have only seen one other for sale and it went very quick?

 

[youngDUMP]

That is a great looking cage! Is that a gun ring on top?

 

[fnpurist]

That sucks . I guess I need to finally start taking up welding. I've been wanting to for awhile but I'm sure the machinery needed to bend pipe that large are expensive

Any off-road shop will be able to fab that up.

 

[Retiredwarhorses]

Any good fabricator can make anything...but you will be hard pressed to fabricate the turret bearing area for the turret bearing, at least to spec anyway. Being I have had GMV stuff fabricated and done some myself, it's labor more then material.....just a set of rear bed rails fabricated up to MSG spec can run almost 2k, material was about 250.00

I'll be back in the AZ desert again here soon and looks like I'll have to build my own cages.
I have to build horse corrals anyway so this won't be much of a challenge
Anyone want to kick in with me feel free to give me a jingle.

It looks like the "B" pillar is completely removed for this cage to go in. I wonder if it has flat stock to strengthen the windshield frame? I can't really see that in the photos. Looks like a "no doors" operation. I'm sure you could still have some sort of canvas on top to provide a bit of shade.

Its an H turret.
Two guys in Texas has them, one is mounted.
I found one at Paul Mollers place.....only the big parts, and sold it.

That would have really helped that Nat guard humvee that flipped on the highway in Jersey recently.

You can get most of the pieces minus the side bed rails from various vendors (HPG, Mac Motors, Kascar, etc...) by typing in the parts numbers listed on the diagrams below. Only reason I did not go this route is this is for the open top GMV set up, and I prefer having a complete top to provide shade.

One more time for my dream build

 

[DukeNukem]

I'd need to allocate a ring mount or two also

I'm working on collecting parts for a GMV build as well. How far are you planning on going with build? Full replica, or do you just want the roof, open back, and half doors?

I'm pretty arrogant being an engineer so lets just say that someday someone can build a replica of my prototype lol
No roof and no doors. Open back

The fabricator on this build neglected to run a full hoop that would follow the windshield and go down to the floor also being bolted onto a frame extension under the floor.

Oh and thanks for all the input guys
