this is the same one i have and it realy takes a good beating,, mounts to the bulkheads and eliminates the bulk head braces, realy beefs it up

heres a link to the ebay store of he seller whom i bought mine from, i thing i got mine for like 20 bucks it's the steel/chrome one,it was aparently a "scratch and ding" cage,, but i didnt find a mark on it,, it's very light, and does a great job of protecting.

they also sell them in stanless steel, but i would guess they would weight more

I had a very simmiler cage as that,and landed on the lid a couple of times and it bent really bad(doing flips) and I bent it back. I did that twice and it broke.I would not recomend that style. if it was better cossed braced at the windshiled and over the rear wheels,it would be an awsome cage.
Just my 2cents.

I use a VGRacing cage on my T-Maxx. It's made of super tough steel wire and mounts between the bumper and bumper brackets. I have the RCRaven cage( the one in the E-Bay link above) on my LST. It bolts to the bulkhead area and is made from softer steel that bends. The rear section is all out of whack and the chrome plating is chipping off.IMO, the VG cage is a better design, and in a crash the impact is not transferred to the bulkheads.

thats funny,, i havnt had any problems with mine ans it's landed on it's lid from 20 feet in the air,, no joke

RE: roll cage
 

The cage that listed first. I have 4 of em. More than welcome to sell/trade with you.I don't like them because they break the bumper mount ALOT.

RE: roll cage
 

yah the RC solutions roll cage protects all of the truck... but you have to modify the body's

RE: roll cage

ill see if i can find my wifes camera and get some pics up here

ok cool

RE: roll cage
 

I have the one in that first ebay auction response for sale. I will give it to you for $25 shipped.

RE: roll cage
 

the Raven R/C roll cage is also one of the one that bolts on at the bulkheads, you can also get them at a steal of a price almost everytime on ebay.

yeah and the rear mount is kind of a "hinge"
i have my rear mounted solid,, and the front i drilled the mounts out a little and have a tight pin and it's setup so that it's qwick release, you just unhook the lock, pull the pin, and you can flip the whole cage up out of the way to work on the truck.
