Also take advantage of the mounting points & plate sizes to brace weak points. It may mean getting creative, since these points are seldom the easy mounting point and you'll want to use the maximum plate size. An example is using a multi-bend plate to tie not just to the floorboard, but a corner or body transition to brace and resist bending in several directions. Or use those rules and tie into the allowed points like the firewall where the steering box is attached. There's more to cages than just safety.
Good cages are an artform.
