Due to a rather scary almost rollover where I stood my MU on it¡¦s bullbar at the top of a very long steep downhill track I have decided that a some type of rollover protection is a must.

The question is which way should I go??
Internal rollcage or Exoskeleton.

Any opinions from anyone who has done this would be great.
I want best protection for money.
What are the advantages and disadvantages
Are there any important points to be aware of.

go to LTSA.govt.NZ before you decide anything and read the internal impact rules. If you cant achieve certain clearances you may have to remove the rear seat permanantly to get a WOF.
Exoskelitons solve all of this but look ugly and kill fuel ecconomy.
What about a cargo barrier. Not as quite as effective as a proper roll cage but will save your skull most of the time
