Indiana Jones & the roll hoops

Thursdays are pool night at my house, this week it was really a ruse to get people to move the rover about 2 feet to the side.. This freed up some room at the bender and I can park the Subaru back in the garage again!!!


If you don't work in the mines err garage this is what you get:


After pulling the roof and test fitting the bar I bent the night before I bent up a duplicate. Pulled the roof again and test fitted the pair. I'll be happy when I can pull the roof and leave it off for a while...



The hoops are a nice snug fit and atheistically pleasing (imho).








I will detail the frame/slider tie ins for the cage over the weekend. Hope to have the cage done into the engine compartment Saturday.. or Sunday :)



Nice to have a little more room! I have all my cuts and bends marked out for the halo and frame/slider tie ins. A-pillar bars are cut and ready to go too. Should go quickly from here. It was late by the time I got to this point and didn't want to upset the neighbors with the chop saw.

I also received some rubber snubbers for the body mounts and should have a new wiring harness today. Curious to see the quality; it's from Northwest Autowire. Same idea as a Painless Wiring harness but hopefully better made. At least they are local...

47 days..
