Yeah its a odd request but i am looking for either a exoskeleton or a interior, frame attached roll cage for a 2006 Yukon, the reason i am looking for this is well on Wednesday afternoon i rolled my 05 Yukon 4 times and slid it on its top down the interstate at 70 mph, luckily know one else was with me and was able to crawl right out of the vehicle, with only a cut up elbow, So now that insurance has replaced it and i have a nice chunk of money coming and i love the Yukon this one will have a roll cage of some sort. I'm not sure where to even start looking, everything i look at online i can't seem to find a company that makes them for a SUV, so do you guys have any advice or information for me i would greatly appreciate it.

Well atleast you walked away from that.

Its probably going to have to be custom made. Find either a custom fab shop or a racing shop and ask them about it. Good luck.

Wo what is the point o doingf this again? Even if you had a roll cage in that sitution, your truck would still look the same, and the insurance company would total it.

Dude what he means is that this time he just had a cut and he was alone but next time he could have kids or whatever and the rollcage saves lives dude. I'm getting one for my 2dr aswell but yea it's gonna be custom made. Shouldn't be too expensive tho

Yep, I think Jesus is dead on, this is exactly the point of a roll cage.
