Title: Roll cage images
Post by: smo on June 16, 2006, 17:06:44

Can anyone who has a 90 (or 110) please take images of the cage inside and out please.

I'm going to have one built later this year for the 90 CSW but cannot decide on external, internal or combination of the 2 as they all have their merits. I can almost certainly rule out full internal as itll cause too many problems in the front, however a rear internal/front external may be the way to go...but without pics i canna know!!

Thanks :)

Hope this gives you  some idea of an external rollcage ... there is one 'loop' of rollcage inside my truck where the rear door post is, (just behind the front seats) ... I can put an internal pic up if you wish.

An internal pic would be great if you could, mines a 90, but apart from length its pretty much the same!!

Is there not an internal hoop at the very back as well?

Nope, there is only one internal loop where the door pillars are, because there is no external side support at that point, which is why it is bolted through floor, on the door pillars and through the roof to the external cage.

Anyhoo on to the piccies ... ( :roll: taken from all the angles I could think of) ... hope it helps :wink:

Worth having a look round some of the commercial sites as well.  Here's one from Protection and Performance, www.ProtectionandPerformance.co.uk

Full internal for a 90

(http://www.protectionandperformance.co.uk/images/16s.JPG)

Can thoroughly recommend these guys too.  They also do a full internal or external cages for a 90.

Henry - do you know if those custom cages prices are fitted or just for the cage...they seem very reasonable.

Title: Roll cage images
Post by: Henry Webster on July 24, 2006, 10:42:38

My understanding is that the prices quoted are for the supply of the tubes only, which would then need welded and fitted.

They do do a fitting service too, which whilst well priced for the job does raise the overall cost somewhat!

Yes its the fitting bit that always makes me squirm at the prices!

Last time I spoke to Mrs Evans at P&P it was for an external front, internal rear to suit a 90 hardtop. Price for supply and fit was a gnats under a grand. They were cheaper than some.
