Check out my new roll cage...

Your trazer is comming along nicely. Do you plan on an internal cage for the cab, or exo?
 
I understand that some people may be trying to give constructive criticism, but I do think it's funny because if you just showed the truck with no rollbar or anything none of these people probably would have said anything about a rollcage....I also wonder how many of these people follow their own advice and even have cages.

Point is, that the rollbar/tube bed you have will offer substantially more protection in a rollover than nothing. Yes, a good cage around the occupants would offer better protection but you definitely have a good start and it's much better than all of these rigs that people show off on the board and people drool over that have 1-tons, lockers, 42" tires, blah, blah, blah...but absolutely no form of rollover protection. Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking these people, I just find it ironic.

Amen... and for the record, those are Detroit locked 1-tons, 42's, a th400/np205 and the engine speaks for itself..

Buefchris- I'm not sure what I'm going to do inside the cab yet. A front bumper/winch mount for my m12000 and stinger are next. Probably will cage the inside too, but not right away.

How'd you get the second belt on the alt pulley to dissapear like that? :p:
 
you have a great start to an awesome cage, yes you need to go into the cab to protect yourself and occupants. alot of people just poke fun, dont take it as being harsh. before you reply from an offended stand point, take it with a grain of salt, they might just be having fun with ya. you will know if they are or are not with a couple of funnin with ya replies right back at them. most of the time every one here is just playin, or just offering constructive criticism, thats all.

like the rig for sure.
 
That rig is sweet! Thats how I invision my truggy to look when I get find time and cash to get another rig. I want to do an exocage when I do mine though.

Hell I guess I need to fix my K5 first and quit dreamin about the next rig. :doah:
 
I haven't even driven my K5 yet, and I am already dreaming of my next rig! Oh well, dreaming is free.
 
I think the cage is off to a great start! Just a few tweaks and it'll be good to go! I would seriously want to protect the cab area too, when opportunity comes but, the some you have definitely beats having nothing! So, I say, looks sharp and great start, keep up the good work!:waytogo:

P.S. That is one sweet engine ya got there!:bow:
