It's not the size, but how you clutter it....

Dude that looks awesome, I think you should run a diagnol support bar down in between the rear side windows. I think that would be cool.

Keep up the good work

They are already on there! Also doing some fancy work to the roof. The rear hoop on the bumper is the spare tire mount and will also secure the rear of the cage.

3/16" brake line. The truck is done with the exception of the rear tire carrier and the roof rack. I don't have a camera at the moment but as soon as I have it I will post some pics up.

Howdy,
great looking 4Runner!! One question I have for you is, why do you use brake line instead of brass tubing? I'm thinking og using brass for the cage on my Jeep but seems like everyone uses brake line. I'm using brass cause I'm good at soldering but not sure if I can braze or not. Thanks for any help.
