I used to have a Cage on my old SJ413 ... that too used to have a 5:1 Low box and a Locker - I only got rid of it to get P/S, a comfier ride, and small turning circle (as at the time i was doing AWDC trials - and you need a tight turning circle to win, or close to win) ... anyhow ..
Once Jimny back on its feet again - an EXTERNAL Cage is on the TO DO list!!
I like the Roych, but chapel gate I'm a bit frustrated with, fine going down, but when me and Maverick made it up the top I'd bent the A pillar, smashed the windscreen, and sheared a freewheeling hub off. Bit expensive that. Maverick damaged his snorkel. Dave didnt get up as he broke a shaft/CV and Andy was behind him and therefore couldnt get up.
I did a punch hunt at Broseley the other weekend, sheared the FWH off again... all 6 bolts snapped again, another two hours with stud extractors !
Oooops!
that sounds expensive!
I had thought about giving it a try up Chapel but as the Jimny is a daily driver i cant risk killing it for a few days!
I prefer the challenge of going up lanes but CG was challenging enough with the help of gravity!
