t maxx rollcage

[eezzyk]

I am considering making a roll cage for my t maxx 2.5. I have looked at allot of the cages out there and I do not like the looks of any of them. I really only want the cage to cover the rear of the truck over the engine sort of a roll bar instead of a cage. Any suggestions to materials or how to mount the darn thing. I have two months off work to recover from foot surgery so I am bored out of my mind and need something to do.

New Era Models has a roll bar that's like you're wanting. I'd suggest you go check it out.

I looked at that one the other day. I am looking for something more scale looking. It might be a good starting point though. Thanks for the info.

i bought a roll cage for my jato, it put so much weight so high it handeled like a pig. i bought a roll bar for the t-maxx, that is just one piece of 3/8 dia aul , that would not add to much weight. dont have it on yet. can't remember the brand. sorry
