we hope to have it up and running in a few weeks. we still have the interior to do and the outer aluminum skin.
we built the car a little on the heavier side for protection and ruggedness. weve seen our share of broken cars that were takin out from something stupid. the owner wanted it a little heavier then what hes seen and use to driving other vehicles that were built super light. he wants the suspension to work instead of getting bucked around from not sinking into obsticles. we used roughly less the 13 sticks of DOM and at 1.77lbs per foot we have less then 420lbs in the cage. i kinda calculated everything out and it may be around 1600-1700 lbs wet.
we also wanted the protection from a well built cage from being punted by trucks, so we didnt have to cut back into it and replace stuff everytime a guy got pissed he was passed by a UTV...lol.
thanks for all your feed back guys, i really appreciate it. i build street trucks and cars, so getting into the utv market has it challanges and rewards too.
heres the light bar we finished up late last night after we fixed the RZRs ripped off a arm mount
