RE: Roll Cage advice please

[Brad HALLETT]

Keith FACKRELL builds a good cage but fairly expensive.  I would only go with Dave or Eddie from Ipswich raceprep for chrome moly.  Depends what you want.   Regards Brad HALLETT http://www.powerup.com.au/~bhallett Proudly Endorsing: ...DATRATS... http://203.33.35.34 Datsun Dedicated For Nissan Motorsport Components Professional Budget Priced competition equipment Contact Errol SMITH email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Heath Sent: Monday, October 09, 2000 10:07 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Roll Cage advice please Shit hey have spoken to Dave since Murray Coote owned it? what about KCF rallysport?   Heath   ----- Original Message ----- From: Brad HALLETT To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, 8 October 2000 10:31 Subject: RE: Roll Cage advice please Heath Those specs are for mild steel seamless I believe.  I just got my shell back from Ipswich Raceprep and  will get the photos of the cage up soon.  Think long and hard about what you want out of the cage, as Chrome  Moly is very expensive and will not make much of a difference if you do not tie up all the suspension points etc to stiffen the oversall structure.  If you ring Dave FERON from Competition Fabrications on 32844660 he can help.  He builds the best Datsun 1600 chrome moly cage I have seen, however they usually have a price tag to much.  Not as expensive as some though....   Regards Brad HALLETT http://www.powerup.com.au/~bhallett Proudly Endorsing: ...DATRATS... http://203.33.35.34 Datsun Dedicated For Nissan Motorsport Components Professional Budget Priced competition equipment Contact Errol SMITH email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Heath Sent: Sunday, October 08, 2000 8:57 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Roll Cage advice please in the cams instructions u sent me brad the pipe sizing is for mild steel? steam pipe   what can i use for chrom moly? 45mm dia x 1.65mm wall thickness? it's 4130 air craft chrome moly tubing it's going to cost around $600 just for the piping? anyone have the bond roll cages ph number?   Heath ----- Original Message ----- From: Brad HALLETT To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 2 October 2000 6:29 Subject: RE: Roll Cage advice please Chrome moly is very strong therefore useable dimensions are less, saving weight.  Unfortunately it is more expensive to buy and has to be tig welded.    Cages are like helmets, what is it worth to you to survive an accident?
