Keep knocking ... It's just a matter of time.
When I bought my CJ, it had the roll cage already installed, so I don't know
the answer to your question. The gussets appear to be similar to the ones
that the tub is bolted to a little further back on the frame. the front
gussets are larger because the roll cage bolts further out from the frame
than the tub bolts are. But, the idea of the gusset is the same.

Yes.
Are you a member of Sony's Imagestation?
Or I could email them or post them on alt.binaries.pictures.autos.4x4 if
you can get that NG.
