If by 'seven bars' folk mean internally braced (triagulated), then I'd say it's an absolute must.
Unbraced cages just aren't, in my view, cages. They're 'tree bars'.
-
has any 1 fitted 1 of then there self and how id it 2 do and do the fit 2 the chassis of the truck
-
Right Stan, as you pm'd me about this post, I'd thought I'd reply publicly, for all to see....
The difference between the 5 and 7 bar.....if you count the horizontal bars, on mine there is 5..
And if you look at the green one (Rourkies), I took the pic actually having it fitted at Whitbreads...you will be able count 7...
The cage attach to the front outriggers, shared by the bulkhead, then the others sit on the shoulders of the rear tub, but have internal pieces that drop down through the tub, onto the chassis !

thanks 4 that m8 what r the 6 point mounting to chassis all about do u need them or no
-
The more contact points on the chassis, the stronger it all is...
Go for 6.....
You don't have to, 4 is good....and a cage, (especially from a well known brand) is better than no cage at all...
Although I saw a cage the other day that would be useless, that Xtreme90 Dan pointed out to me, was literally folded, not bent....I nearly pee'd !
-
hi m8 soz 2 b a pain is there any chance u can get some pic of how it goes tho the body 2 and where is fixes 2 the truck :angel:

i could have made a stronger cage out of flat bar,
that'll certainlyy kill him if he roll's it
but then again, he a know it all so let him get on with it :lol:
