If I have a roll cage........

ive always wondered how welding that close to the headliner worked. Or if you have to replace it

I’ve seen it done with rocker boxes where the vertical bars are shorter that way you can weld the top. Then you lift the cage in place and build a pedestal under the cage to the body. Look up the fabrication series on YouTube. This guy does it all and then some. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcxlBLmujrjTVSSUkzZ2Jlg

In both cases the headliners were removed and the body raised slightly to aid the welding and get the headliner back in.

Ah so they installed the cage to the frame, welded everything then raised the body up to install the headliner then dropped it back down to finish the floor around the cage. That makes sense

Expect squeaks and noises and working under the dash will never be the same.

And the reason being ??

The roll bar acts like a tuning fork and things rub, swingouts bounce around. Under the dash needs no explaination.

Guess I'm fortunate - haven't had any of those problems.
