Looking for a roll cage for yukon!

guys i think yall are over reacting a bit.... we were just saying it could help in an accident.. and could keep you just a tad bit safer

Well, if you stay home or ride the bus, you are a "tad" safer as well.

If you feel the need to have a cage in your DD because of safety, how do you ever feel safe?

Race cars have cages... but race cars don't hit medians, they don't hit poles, they don't hit trees... they are subject to way different hazards than DD's are exposed to. They hit grass, gravel, tires, water barrels, other moving cars... missing anything? Drivers wear the necessary equipment to keep them safe in an accident (read: they wear full suits and helmets).

Now a DD. They are exposed to plenty of hazards race cars aren't exposed to. For this reason they have 3 point seatbelts with roofs that are MEANT TO COLLAPSE. If a body part hits a steel tube in a small accident (even a fender bender), expect some injuries. Your body hits places it shouldn't in an accident.

Darwin is facepalming right now.

my suggestion would be to just keep it between the ditches

^ +1 - I like it, seems also fairly reasonable to me.

I don't really understand why everyone has to be assholes about the situation, I have been in vehicles with roll cages and they worked, now when i drive 200+ miles a day for my company guess what a little added security is worth it, i came here asking for advice not all the ****** to talk out there ass, but i guess thats how most of you roll while your on the net. I thank the guys that gave me some information and the others, well you know what you can do!

Hmmmmmmmmm, I did not see anyone using the words you think you need to be using via the internet in order to get your point across.

I am sorry, I really am. You can not take any constructive input and you have to throw swear words around instead.

Well, go and get your roll cage, it will be AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man just ignore all the negativity. We all just have different point of views. I also drive 146 miles daily to my work. And with a little added security I would be happy too.
So have u found a company that does the roll cages?

I don't see why you're so pissed off because you're wrong?

1. Steel bars win when you hit them with body parts
2. In the event of an accident, steel bars add time to making a rescue
3. You'll lose backseat space to put the tubes in behind the front seats
4. You're making a rollover prone vehicle more prone to rollover by adding hundreds of pounds of tubing to the top of the car
5. For this to even make sense you'll need new seats to retrofit your 5 point harness in and a helmet to wear whenever you drive

I just gave you all the info you'll need. I don't understand why you're so mad the roof crumpled in your rollover like it was designed to do?

Yes plz post pics and let us know how it is. I am currently building and 95 Chevy Tahoe for mud bogging and am in the same boat on finding a cage to fit in mine.

This thread is almost 5 years old I highly doubt the OP went through and installed a cage.
