Damn, that takes up a lot of room. I was thinking about a 6 pt cage, but I really want to keep my car "street" if you know what I mean.

I purchased the dual swings on my Wolfe 6pt and I honestly NEVER open them. Im 6'0 210 pounds and i have NO problem getting in the car without opening the swing out. They make a hell of a cage though, fit like a glove

You can get the parts that convert it from S&W for $34 for a single door. If you ever decide down the road you want them.

very nice roll bar set up, any reason why you went with the gas tank one instead of the frame rails in the back area? how long did it take to to paint and install everything looks VERY well planned out

Cage looks very good ! I'm getting ready to install my 6pt Wolfe cage (dual swingouts) and I'm wondering if you have any pointers for making perfect cuts on the carpet to fit around the cage. I've seen a couple of installs on 6pt cages and it looks like a surgeon installed the unit. I would like for the fit and finish to look a factory item
