anyone with bolt in roll cages

i don't know if this is the place for this but i was looking for some pics of some bolt in roll cages I have one but have not gotten it in yet. it is being a PITA. i am thinking about just making it a weld in. but i wanted to see if anyone had the bolt in ones in and what kinds of tricks they have for doing them.

What's the point? They're not NHRA legal and they won't add much in the way of structuraly rigidity because there will always be some flex at the bolt locations. having said that...

Re: anyone with bolt in roll cages

thanks for the pic. i can see now why my cage did not fit. the hard top car has less on the roof than the t-top car. I cut my cage at the bottom so now i am going to weld it in. thanks.
