I’m wondering if there are any reasons to not weld the bar, I don’t know. The bungs- I just hate to weld things to it that I won’t use. it’s so pretty! LolWhy not weld the bungs and the harness bar?
Hi! Sorry it took so long to answer. This is my first reply and I just saw that I need to do that here and not by email. .
I also have a 2006 Rubicon. The cage came really fast which was unexpected but I have not gotten to install yet and it sounds so fun that I’m a little nervous. I’m new and learning.
We are building a powder coating oven, thought we had time because of the back order and we did not.
I thought I’d have the best shot with 4WP since they own Poison Spyder, so that’s who I tried to buy from first. They said there was at least a 10 week wait, then stopped returning my calls. I contacted a local off road guy my club uses a lot-Brian Derrick Hancock of H.O.W. Motorsports in SC. It was drop shipped to my house within one week, and they threw in the harness bar.
I’m going to switch to after market seats and won’t have to worry about the bungs. I use the Jeep daily so I’m not going to take it apart until it’s necessary. Also want to line the floor at the same time, needs to be a little warmer. Another option instead of powder coating is Monstaliner. Had a few hard core rock crawlers here recommend it. Said it’s It’s thicker, cheaper, and easier to fix than powder coating if it gets messed up. I don’t usually wheel THAT hard. I really like my Jeep. I at least need to get better at fixing it before I tear it up.
I appreciate the tips!! I’m learning so I’m glad when it’s spelled out for me. Are you in the ‘03-‘06 Rubicon FB group? Thank you for the info. I sure appreciate the input.
When the cage was delivered and where it still sits in the shop.
