Re: Rollcage Construction
while the or fab cage is nice, and can with stand a roll or two, you will need basically two things in any cage design
1. more triangulation, that is what will add strength and rigidity to the cage in a roll over situation
2. tie the cage into the frame.
While DOM is the standard, a well designed and fabricated hrew cage can be just as strong if not stronger than a hacked in DOM cage. Make sure your joints are nice and tight and the welder really penetrate into both pieces and you will be in great shape.
I like the Poison Spyder cage, I think it offers a great foundation for a safe cage.
I don't have any pics of my cage on hand, but mine is build off the factory B pillar, everything else is 2.25 DOM. I've had it on it's Lid twice now, none too serious, but it has held up.
