Hmmmmm.... Jon - do you want to part with that cage?

I've come up with a solution for the harness bar that I'm going to test out for structural integrity in the next few weeks. Purlin clamps (who the hell came up with that name?) are designed to attach tubes without bolts or welds. I can use these to "strap" a harness bar to the the forward uprights on the hoops. I've gotta test how strong they really are - supposedly the working load on these is over 1000 lbs. Im gonna try to rig up two of them to lift the rear end of Wifey's escalade. This should be fun!

Only from my cold dead hands. One of my biggest regrets in selling parts is letting go of a ready to weld in spec Boxster cage from Hanksville Hot rods. I don't think they are available anymore.
