makeshift rollcage this is in no way permanent, but i got bored and thought i would see what i could come up with, gonna put some monster tins on it, might look kinda cool.... http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/...s/GEDC0606.jpg http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/...s/GEDC0605.jpg http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/...s/GEDC0604.jpg |
Dude that looks really cool. It almost makes it look like a full tuber chassis. +1 for cool idea"thumbsup" |
thanks man, im not very good at it but i like to build things, if i was worth a damn at welding i would already have a tuber but, oh well i can dream i guess, but thanks for the compliment |
What keeps it from rocking back and forth in a flop? |
honestly man i havent even gave it a trial run yet i got it done right at dark tonight so i didnt get a chance, but i can about garuntee if the baby gets on its top it will stay there haha, wich is why i said its probably not permanent. im gonna try and make some sort of tounge shape like a hood in the front.im open to suggestions, |
Ok so the top will look good after you put the monster skin on it. I would skin the sides also by taking out the two LCA frame side screws, punching two holes in skin for the bottom and use any of the top holes for a nut and bolt through top of skin. For the hood I would cut out a triangle skin out of black plastic or maybe metal also and zip tie it twice on each side to each UCA, should move with the links well> repeat for rear. |

Dude that turned out sick!! Exactly what I had envisioned when I was thinking about it. If you painted the front and rear skins yellow it would POP! |
yellow?? you think so? |

I would of went all black, but that Monster graphics is wicked! I think you should take a can of black spray paint to those shocks "thumbsup" |
Inspired Inspired by tyrod_emmons, I did my own ghetto styled roll cage via one thick wire clothes hanger. Turned out pretty sturdy. Will do more work on it but here's what I got done so far. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/_I...NY/redcat1.jpg https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_I...Cs/redcat3.jpg https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_I...x0/redcat4.jpg |
