looks like a safety devices cage, just picked one up myself for a ton
do they need mounting blocks welding in or is it a case of just drilling the floor?

Now you have seen all the curse word I have and can think off anything else you need just give us a shout wahey there he is! yeh il definatly let you know matey, deano - that cage looks similar to mine, the way the door bars bolt to the rear hoop ( the little door bars) is the same as mine, shame i cant find any numbers etc on it, it would be good to know! |

cage is in! i havent bolted it down yet, but its actually all together in the car now. i had to cut 2 inches off the leg that goes to the rear arch, but after many measurements and one butt clenching cut they were off, and the cage fits something like now. just one small problem , il let the pics do the talking..     and heres where the problem lies!  ... thats all for now folks, bit of head scratching to be had. |
