But then supposedly those 12ton benders on trademe can bend sched 40 and 80 upto 2" diameter, and with 90deg even thinnish 2.6mm wall bends at $30 each it would probably work out more expensive to use weld in bends anyway

the Chinese benders are ok but with the dies they come with will crush the pipe to much as there not the right size for nz pipe ok for sliders, to much crush and your cage won't pass.

you then need to go and buy some dies from bramley there the right size for nz pipe. I bought a 32nb size one for 130 from George Henry

This is the plan plus a cross on the roof and also one under the front windscreen

The only issue you have with the double cab is the "B" pillar clearing both doors and keeping it in nice and tight. ( I seem to recall the mad pom having a problem with this anyway).
Have a look at other Dcabs that have been done, and see where they put the support.

Yea have heard that... And will take it into account we've had a read up and study up but I like the idea of having one so we gonna give it a go and c what happens will keep u posted
