We had a small break from roll cages recently, which allowed time to complete other customers projects.  A 2014 Hilux rear diff to incorporate a Landcruiser 80 series centre (9.5″) and disk brakes, no more stripped Hilux 8″ gears and no more drum brakes!

Continued work on a Datsun 1200 ute, rear diff swap to a much stronger R31 diff, with usual shortening and axle mods required to cope with the new turbo motor. We also made time for a customers truck requiring some repairs to the air brake mounts and re-setup the front King -Truck Series shocks.

Next week, back on to a 2017 RZR Polaris in for a Cagetec CAMS cage.

 

WA’s first delivered 2018 X3 has had the Cagetec treatment, on a very tight timeline the project was completed with great results.

Dean’s curved roof CAMS Spec Cagetec Cage is complete and now with the powder coaters for sand blasting, zinc prime, top coat and then clear coat, this is going to be one flash Can-Am 2018 X3. No time to rest, fabrication of the two 30 litre under seat fuel tanks are underway.

After a lot of work we have managed to fabricate a 40 litre auxiliary fuel tank that mounts under the drivers seat. Not only is it nice and low, it utilises wasted space without affecting the driver seating position, the installation included CAMS required firewall.

Custom seat mounts for after market race seats have also been developed and designed to accommodate tall drivers and navigators.

 

The very neat Yamaha YXZ is back for an aluminium Auxiliary Fuel Tank, aiming for 40lt capacity to ensure enough fuel range for most offroad racing events.  We also fabricated a compact water tank using marine grade 316 stainless for an immaculate 79 Series Landcruiser. A rare Datsun 1200 ute is in for some custom diff  work and other mods to get it ready for registration.

When time allows we continue with the Cagetec Hilux build, we are keen to get it on the track some time soon.
