I have been searching for pics of different style Roll Cages (esc for a B2) i will be building my own very shortly. While the TEch library has some good info i think it could better use more pics of designs etc......

Maybe start a sticky of everyones cage designs? This is my first cage build and i learn more from what i see, not what i read:c-n:.

So if you would care top share pics of your cages so i can help in designof my own that would be awesome or maybe some links to cages spec to the B2

Sorry to highjack your thread but, I am also interested in seeing cages. I'm looking into the Jeg's cage for the ranger but I'm not completely sure it's going to be enough
http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplayPopup?storeId=10001&catalogId=10002&productId=749661&itemId=55958&langId=-1&showValue=1 (I put the link also cuz the pic wasn't working) I think with an extra main bar towards the back of a B2 this would be good. But in my case where there is going to be 5-6K pounds of unsprung weight I really wanna be sure.

you building a internal or exo?? I have bult two internal for stcok cars when i used to race, some of the things i was told when building them were to make your main hoops out of one peace(which is hard to do) and trangelation(spelling??) makes them stronge.

I have seen some good and some crappy cages at the local race track and seen some of the crapy ones get in some serius crashes will no damage to the cage, aslong as you got good, tight joints were you are going to weld and you can weld it all the wayaround the tube you should be good!

Hope this helps a bit
Kris

I also saw more posts in this thread. The staff is aware of various posts/threads disappearing as of late and we are looking into it, an apology to anyone that is affected.
