the only issues i see are the side bars not being regulation height and the spot welds on the plates. pretty much looks like a “show” cage. ---

its not tooo bad. should have done full penetration welds and no stupid boxes for the main hoop. looks 3 times better than the shit i’ve seen on the streets and at shows recently. ---

Not bad… cosmetically. In the case of an accident, I think the force of impact would knock that cage loose. ---

I like how the OP examines the welds so closely. He probably thought they were great and wanted to show them off. ---

welds are junk, those boxes he has welded to the floor and the main hoop are garbage plus the tube that goes from the main hoop to the front floor are too low/dont offer very much protection. The plates he built for the rear shock towers are marginal at best. ---

> [@Avatar](#): > > I like how the OP examines the welds so closely. He probably thought they were great and wanted to show them off. Concave + Incomplete Fusion + Holy mother fucking crater city = … I don’t even know… I mean it will hold for sure… But… not something I would rely on imo. At least he had the brights to brush it off before he took the pictures. Because it should’ve been all black and nasty as fuck (nastier as fuck) if he didn’t. Unless he used one of those great gas less mig welders from harbor freight or similar It does look good though, unless you know what to look for. Then it fucking blows -.- In the post it says his mechanic got a new tig welder… uhm… yeah. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/super-nice-roll-cage/65777.md?page=2)
