Oh what's your weight. Because I know xdc says over 3k must use 1.75". I wonder with my car stripped out if I will make it under 3k with cage. I really want to use 1.5 so much cheaper for the die I have a jd2 bender. I know the 1.5 die is 150 shipped and the 1.75"die is 450 for the one I want. What specs are your cage built for?

1.5 .120 wall I think can be used over 3k pounds. I dont see my car being over 3200 pounds after removing everything luxury about the car and then removing sheet metal and tons of wiring.
