Frying Pan Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Pauly Haven't got one I'm afraid, but I'm curious what a 'half cage' is Understand rollbar, and full cage, but what is the middle ground???

Sheds Moderator Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 I have a Roadsport cage from a 96 DeDion. I could be prepared to sell it. I think the fittings are different, but I'm unsure. Usual address... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pauly G Posted January 26, 2005 Author Share Posted January 26, 2005 Dear Mr Heaven7soon, This is how I had previously understood things: Roll over bar - single tube Half cage - single tube with two strengthening down pieces and a cross member Full cage - the whole shabang. I used to run a tr6 and in order to compete I needed a 'half cage' rather than a roll over bar. So, to cut a long story short, and in Caterham speak.... I want a FIA roll bar. Cheers Paul.

Frying Pan Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Paul Understand you now! As you say, the correct (or at least widely understood on here) terminology for what you want is an FIA bar. To be picky, this only becomes 'FIA approved' when a 'petty strut' is fitted. This is a further strengthenig piece which runs from the top of the roll bar diagonally down to a mounting boss in the inner passenger sideskin about 3" below the front of the 'door' gap. If this is not exposed (I presume the boss is fitted), then you need to remove some rivets from the inner trim around this area to find it, then drill through the trim to expose the boss.

Silver 21 Posted January 27, 2005 Share Posted January 27, 2005 Paul How soon do you need one?, I currently have one sat on my garage floor and another one waiting to be collected. If you can hold on for a couple of weeks one of these will be available Graham Competition Secretary 2005 Speed Championship - 13 Rounds with 7 counting towards the championship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
