yea its fun if you have the tools and supplies laying around otherwise the cage would be kinda costly. on the other hand this id what we did to my buddies 4x4 yukon when he rolled it. cutting the weight off the top made it a lot harder to roll too.

Hmm....

Now the largest auto manufacture in the world....

Now lets be real, you and I both know that no car manufacturer uses caulk to hold body parts on.
