INSTALLATION INSTRUC

TIO

Thank you for purchasing a Poison Spyder Full

Cage Kit for your Jeep CJ-7. Poison Spyder’s

innovative Lazer-Fit technology provides for the

easiest, fastest installation of any aftermarket full

cage kit on the market. Installation does require

specialized skills and tools, such as welding. If

you are not confident in your mechanical skills,

please seek the help of a professional to perform

the installation. Please read through these entire

instructions before proceeding with installation.

CHECK YOUR PACKAGES
Please check your packages immediately upon

arrival to ensure that everything listed is included,

and to check for damage during shipping. Use

the diagram and Parts List on the next page to

identify each part. Tubular components are laser-

etched with the identification numbers shown

(plate components are not marked) Note that

the parts as depicted in the drawing might not

exactly match the actual part in shape, length,

bends, etc. If anything is missing or damaged,

call Poison Spyder at (951) 849-5911 as soon as

possible.
NOTE: In addition to the parts supplied in the kit,

you will need to source your own hardware to

bolt the cage in. In some cases you may be able

to re-use the OE hardware, such as at the B- and

C-Pillar Mount Plates, if you have a factory bar.

At the least, you will need an additional (8) 3/8”

(dia.) bolts, nuts and washers, for the A-Pillar

Mount Plates. The length will vary, depending

on your installation. Use only quality, Grade 8

hardware and lock nuts.

TOOLS NEEDED

• Mechanic’s tool set
• Ratchet straps
• Dead-blow hammer
• Measuring tape & carpenter’s square
• Brake cleaner & shop rags
• Welder and proper welding equipment
• Protective welding blankets

INSTALLATION NOTES
The Full Cage Kit will work with the factory Jeep

soft top. Duster rear deck covers, “windjammers”

and short style bikini tops will work. However,

“safari” style bikini tops will not fit. Children can

ride in the back seat but the Poison Spyder Full

Cage Kit was NOT designed to accommodate

adult passengers in the OE back seat.
Installation of the Full Cage Kit can take up to 8

hours. This kit requires welding, which should

be done by a certified welder. You will need a

friend or two to assist with the installation.
IMPORTANT: It is imperative that the top, doors,

seats, plus any other components that are going

to be reinstalled after the cage install be test-

fitted BEFORE final welding of the cage! Poison

Spyder Customs is not liable for fitment issues

due to negligent install.

INSTALL PROCEDURE
NOTE: In most cases, the laser-cut notches and

laser-etched assembly marks will eliminate all

guesswork. Regardless, carefully inspect each

part and its placement prior to tacking and finish-

welding. Also, each step should be extrapolated

for both sides, where any procedure is to be

duplicated on both sides of the cage.
