93nismo · 11-05-2009, 12:36 PM

*Ninjabread* · 11-05-2009, 12:46 PM

That thing called a measuring tape, and the other one called a brain.

*Brian* · 11-05-2009, 02:08 PM

Matej · 11-05-2009, 02:08 PM

It is true, I agree.

*Xbroke_kidX* · 11-05-2009, 05:07 PM

especially the rhd drive ones.....

350zftw · 11-06-2009, 12:31 PM

excuse my newb skillz, but why get a bolt in, instead of welded in?

more support?
swappable to another car if needed?

that s15 miracle one looks amazing!!!!

It's easier. and you can sell it if you don't want it anymore.

*Brian* · 11-06-2009, 12:49 PM

I think usually cheaper.
You can sell it if you want.
Put it in a new car if you crash the old one.
You get the name brand so you can add to your mod-list.

the list goes on and on.

350zftw · 11-06-2009, 12:57 PM

Oh i c

hell yeah, makes sence, drifters are going to crash eventually if you want to get better

some of the ones in here look sick.
some would kind of worry me tho, lol

*Brian* · 11-06-2009, 01:00 PM

Plus, the bolt in cages come painted. Much better than the dudes who get custom cages and leave it rusting away. ugh.

well for one i think it looks better, and two if i'm at the track and a total the front of my car i can unbolt the cage and put it in my next car

and the s15 mircale X its just a bunch of braces its not a cage

*scottie* · 11-06-2009, 02:55 PM

YAY for bolt in roll bars!

All is well until the tire wall shows up....

Granted this wasnt a full cage like some of the ones pictured here. Please note that no matter what bolt in you buy, there needs to be extra support at the base!! Notice in the pictures above that the bolt plate went right through the metal. Either way I just dont know if I trust my life to bolt in cages no matter how "cool" they look or "ease of installation" or that you can take them out and put them in another car.

p.s. Both driver and passenger escaped unharmed.

I'm surprised it took that long for that post to make it into this thread. lol.

*Brian* · 11-06-2009, 03:11 PM

Mustang .

Matej · 11-06-2009, 03:25 PM

Yay for Mustangs, or any 2006+ car. All is well until they flip over, crushed under their own weight.

stinky_180 · 11-06-2009, 03:42 PM

just curious about reinforcing the base. do you basically add more metal/structure on the floor where the cage bolts onto? does anybody have pictures of this reinforcement?

Noob question of the day, but How did you line up the bar and cut the hole through the interior peice? I'm asking only because the bar literally looks like it disappears into the interior piece (super close fit)

lechu84 · 11-06-2009, 04:36 PM

has anyone experienced turning a 4 point to a 6 point? i have a bolt on auto power 4 point and thinking of getting the "u-weld" to make it a 6 point.
*keep in mind imma keep this a bolt on cage.

In the picture where the roll bar tubing penetrated the floor boor probably would have happened even with a weld in cage. Even if you would have put on 1/4" steel plate than welded the bar onto it Im still pretty confident that weak unibody flooring would fail with all of the force of the roll over.
