yeh mate seen it on a few jeeps when i was over in USA and liked how they looked, Not sure what it is for maybe just it you hit an animal or pedestrian :P provides little bit protection to the jeep ahha

mainly i just liked the look of it.

fil

yeh mate that KC box i just made up to hold all my relays for my KC spottys and fogs + my IPF rear work light, just to make all the wiring under the bonnet neat and tidy, its all over the place now haha.

a stinger is fitted to reduce the impact of a end over end rollover and also offer some winch protection.. but to offer that you will need to add the some support bracing from the hoop back to the chasse.

eg..

yeh my hoop bolts down via the 4x 12mm bolts into the chassis that hold the bar on.
My hoop is that that tall or lean forward as much as in that pic mate :P
So i think i will go with Anti pedestrian :P

hey matt can you post up the drawings

[MattTJ]

hey sorry mate still need to get to a scanner,

I only have the drawing for the base plate and tie down loop.
The hoop it self was just a bend and go thing,

But its 400mm tall and 736mm wide at the base with a 100mm flat on the top before the bends, not sure on the angles. Though i set the forward lean 13deg

The base plate is just 90x65x10 plate and then the chassis holes are 780mm center to center 12.5mm holes and 35mm appart measured 13mm from out side edge of the base plate.
The tie down loops are 13mm round bar bent round the 2" hoop and pulled up 30deg..

I might just take a pic of this drawing i quickly done and post it see if its ok.
