he built me a real nice 8.50 cage...a great set of stainless headers, a nicely done chute mount, among other things.
but he really did me wrong with this window net bar.....


what the heck was he thinking???

should be a fairly easy fix

Thats funny and kind of ironic because that is what I use as well for window nets and I have one on my Challenger. LOL! Does that make me BAD!

just take a die grinder and grind off the "g" and then it will say "M" and that would be great.

thanks for the suggestions, but i might just take the middle one out of my '84 Ram if it will work, or just order a new one without any logo from a chassis catalog.

can't be jinxed by any ** parts

Look at it this way. You know they have good seat belt latches. They have been building wrecks for a long, long time. LOL

Actually he probably did you a favor by buying the GM buckle. Probably a lot cheaper than the Mopar version
