Steve69SS396 Apr 12th, 10, 02:37 PM Here are a couple of mine as the cage was being finished. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v325/steve69ss396/IMG_0322B.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v325/steve69ss396/IMG_0325B.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v325/steve69ss396/IMG_1862.jpg vonzipper396 Apr 12th, 10, 02:41 PM cage looks good, what did you spray it with? I had the paint store put one of the interior shades of green in a spray can so i could paint all the bars with my spray gun first except for the ends,then touch up the welded joints after i was done.its just low gloss lacquer over etch primer. freeskier Apr 12th, 10, 03:26 PM steve, whats the OD size on the cage tubing? does anybody pad the 45 degree bar next to the driver? painting most of the cage and then touching up the welds sounds like a really good call. john68 Apr 12th, 10, 03:34 PM This is the only pict I have loaded, Right after I took out the drive shaft and trans, 14 pt. Steve69SS396 Apr 12th, 10, 04:07 PM steve, whats the OD size on the cage tubing? does anybody pad the 45 degree bar next to the driver? painting most of the cage and then touching up the welds sounds like a really good call. The tubing is 1-5/8" .134" wall mild steel. I bought a complete 12 point cage from Chris Alston. I put padding on the door bars and the bar up by the roof. http://www.cachassisworks.com/p-497-12-point-roll-cage.aspx freeskier Apr 12th, 10, 04:47 PM i have the cage already, its chromoly from miller race cars i believed and its 10 point. im thinking white maybe? 1971BB427 Apr 12th, 10, 08:25 PM Mine's just a 4 pt 2" .134" tubing. Padded behind driver and pass. head areas. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v691/marlinguy/int1.jpg freeskier Apr 13th, 10, 05:45 PM cage will be black or white probably. does andbody put autometer gauge cups on the a pillar bar of their cages? freeskier Apr 20th, 10, 01:55 PM anybody? tgvenom69 Jul 4th, 10, 11:34 PM Had to bring this back as I'm in the process of fitting my cage. Does anyone have pics of where the main hoop attaches to the floor? I was test fitting the main hoop and saw that it looks like it will mount over a thin galvanized sheet that covers wiring. Did you guys take that out? Any help/pics would be appreciated. BTW I've got the Chassisworks 8-point roll cage. Thanks. DOUG G Jul 5th, 10, 07:09 AM Cut the tailend off where you need :yes: PS: watch the wires. Steve69SS396 Jul 5th, 10, 08:33 AM I removed them from my car for the cage install. Once the cage was finished I trimmed them to fit. tgvenom69 Jul 5th, 10, 09:50 AM Cool, thanks. I'll try to remember to take pics as I go along. | ||
