Cage Work

Just a FYI. Dr. Chop's slow right now if anyone needs cage work done. He's going to be building a total custom cage similar to Loose Nuts for Big Blue Outdoors and another RZR4 for them. He's been making S rear sections for the 11's as well as new style dash bars and other stuff. Just let me know if you need anything.

Dodd , I think he is talking about a setup like you have...

Mines not in the pics.

one like loose nuts. raw would be fine but I would prefer DOM

He can bend DOM but I wouldn’t use it because of the weight. Stacy's cage is freaking heavy! .120 wall with bracing and gussets would be three times stronger than the stock cage. Stocker's not much ticker than exhaust pipe

PM me on the price..

it is heavy, but ive never not had enough power or lost a drag race from it being so. Wife and i flipped the thing lastsummer, caved her side of the cage down about 6 inches. Beleive if it would have been made of anything else one of us could have been hurt.She still to this day is scared to death.

good to hear from you Stacy! I agree a strong cage is a good thing to have if you ever need it.

thanks Gunney!

So your cage is DOM loose nut?? sorry I don't know most of you guys on a first name bases. The rolls I anticipate will be low speed but on step, rocky inclines where 2-3 rolls could be possible. I am wanting style and function . I really like the front bumper on yours. How does it bolt up? Looks like the plastic was cut to allow it to go through. I assume it does not attach to the radiator support . Looks really sturdy.

Please don’t take this the wrong way. If you want a cage just like loose nut's, Badland's Offroad in Indiana built it and then it was added to. You'd be better off going to them for one like it. Stacy is right, his cage held up well to the "back flip" his buggy took. The long span between the A and B pillars is where it bent. It was a very hard hit.

Let me know if you need anything else.

I love the quote on the top. "There's no excuse for what I'm about to do"

Thanks DODDS I'll check them out . Thanks for the pic of the rear of the cage two. I had not seen it from the rear maybe with these pics I can get a local shop to do a one off from them. Thanks again for all the info and help with this. Scott

it is DOM, the bumper came from sum place i found on the internent a couple of years ago.Sorry,but i cant rem for the life of me who it was.It bolts to where the factory winch mount bolts to the frame,smaller bars bolt on the tabs in front of the radiator.That was a weak pt,thats why we put the hood bars on,to give it more strentgh and thought it looked good too! Dr Chop can build and paint u any kind of cage that u are looken for, just give him an idea. Mentioned tree kickers, and he came up with the ones on loosenut now. ORTA JUST BUY LOOSENUT AND U WOULD HAVE A CAGE!!!

Stacy , i am glad to see you out and about on the
forum again. We missed you.....
