I like it, but i have to ask, is this a trail rig only? I ask this due to the dash, and the straight upright cage, (back seats too, that is). It seems to awkward to be a daily driver.

It will be a trail rig only. I was thinking about keeping it street legal but after I pinch the front end I think I will be losing that.
I do like the bender, it works really well. I have only run into one problem where I had to re-think something because it only does 90 deg. If you are looking for something more than that you have to get a different bender. I decided to do the cage out of 1 1/2 tube. I am not really going to be do anything really crazy. It was more so I could cut the roof off.

The rear seats will be a short back seat for my kids. Those were there for the mounting bolts. Seats have same bolt pattern I just couldn't afford all four so I got the front two for now.

It is from ruff stuff specialties. See link below for info on what I bought. It was not to bad to get set up once all the geometry was figured out.

Man, I know they're a bit more expensive but I can promise that if you buy some suspension seats you'll be loving life. I had a set of the seats you have for a very short period of time and hurt like hell after every wheeling trip.
Cage is looking awesome. I assume you're not putting inner fender wells back in? Cut down stock hood maybe? Hard to picture where you're going with the front end.
