Yeah not fun. Much better this morning, hopefully be able to do some welding again wednesday
Yeah ill tie the cage into the a pillar and also add a tab to the gusset bar that bolts to the upper seat belt mount. Also through to the strut towers
What do you guys reckon on one bar through to each strut tower vs two to each? Was intially going to do two but it was such a pain to weld the bottom bar of the door x on the a pillar side (how I got arc eye too!) that im thinking of just doing one thru to the tower
Here is where its at the moment. maybe another day or so work to finish att eh little bits and pieces
Went pretty all out on the cage. I wanted it strong. Im only 80kg and 6 ft but I feel a lot bigger than that sitting in a 1200! If I am unlucky enough to have a big crash I want to stay in one piece. haha
