looks like its time to take a saw to that 2k1 that rolled, thats a perfect excuse to go topless and build a cage
We cool?
Hey - you could always get lucky twice in a row, right?
Are you hard-core or not?
Insurance totalled it...Archie and Martha sold it for the Buyback ($1500 with all mods removed)....Arch already has a built and caged CJ that sees extreme duty, they didn't need another that they were still makig payments on.vintagespeed said:The 2k1 should porta power out the damage & keep on wheeling with plexi windows. I mean common there's still a roof! As to the exo cage thing, NO it simply isn't going to provide the support in the 2.75 roll being discussed. Fact is, it probably would have caused more damage due to the tubing cutting into the body & smashing the windshield. An exo-cage is like a piece of bread with the center removed.......just a crust & if you move it side to side it'll flex all over the place. SAME THING! If you're so hard-core that you need an exo-cage in the first place then why not cut a couple holes in the sides and triangulate it? Are you hard-core or not?
What amazes me, is when people start thinking about an exo-cage to protect their prize rig with zero thought about the safety of the occupants
