They don't exist, because it doesn't exist. We all wish one did, though. |

How would it mount since there is no frame? |

Roll cages get alot of their integrity by using good quality materials and by strong welds between the pieces. It would have to be welded or bolted to the unibody too though. A properly designed and assembled `cage in a KJ would mean some interior cutting, most likely. You'd at least have to lift the carpet and stuff to mount the supports to the unibody, and then modify the carpet so it could go back in. It would be cool, but do you really need a cage? |

Mine will have one by July! Custom made front external one. Bolts to custom rock rails which are fixed to box sections underneath...then up in front of front doors to hood...up either side of wind shield to roof and back along roof. Will bolt to mounts for factory roof rails. Lots of cross pieces for strength. Being made by this company here in England http://www.evansuk.ltd.uk/. Should look pretty good. They're going to design an integral light bar to replace the plastic renegade one. I may extend the cage internally at the back too....waiting for the designs. The cages are designed for motorsport competition so very strong...and are shot blasted, zinc primed then double powder coated...so should last along time too! The good thing for me is that they make aluminium clamping blocks so fitting a roofrack is easy...and you can swap and match things like kayak supports etc very easily without having to drill the bars. 
And the price? £1700..which is what..about $2600 or there abouts? But I want it!!
