My buddy owns 40 acres in North Plains, I had some guys from Poorboy come out with me. What a blast!!! My little Ranger Kicks A$$ I went where they did and where they wouldn't. Granted I have been wheelin up there for a few years and know where to go, I like the skinny pedal a little more than most too I think. I am a firm believer in tire speed

Yea, lets go!!! I had fun with these guys.... But it would be cool to see other people that aren't afraid of trees. Now dont get me wrong we had fun and these cats were cool but they had daily drivers. I can understand not wanting to bend them all up, but I will push my way threw anything. I am out to get somewhere or role over doing it. I am not out to break or anything but $hit happens and if it was fun then no bitching from me. Strap it back on the trailer and go home and make it better.

This is the first truck I have had that I trailer, so I seem to be a little harder on it..... OK ALOT harder on it, but thats why I built it, I cant wait for full width axles a role cage and a v8 I bet the trees will run then HAHA I just want to have fun and try not to do anything to stupid. Stupid can be fun to though.......

Thats kind of the direction Im going, I like the mud and loose dirt. Crap flying past the doors and landing on the hood. I do need a cage Im going to hurt myself if I dont, this truck has been on its side 4 times now and I only have 2 trips on it. After the first time I started putting on my seat belt

That would be cool!!! I had a welder at one point in time but last year I had to get a pacemaker/defibrillator so I cant weld now. So now I got to have ppl do the welding for me. Now it all cost more than just tube, wire and my time I have to pay some one else.. and that SUCKS!!!! I took the truck in once and the guy tryd to change it all around on me and tell me I was wrong. Screw That!!! He said the cage needs to be 2 inches away from the body... NOOOO I am going to bend the body to the cage and keep it tight as posible to the body so it dont get hung up on stuff

Yea, that happens alot. Way too many talkers out there with no experience. I will vow for the
bastards here though... I have seen some awesome functionable cages that they have built. they all hold up well. Any advise you can get from them will most likely be great.

Ill take all the help I can get on a cage, I have never built one but I know what I want. Real simple and nice smooth angles so the cage slides nice against the trees and what ever else. I will cut the truck up and make it TIGHT as I can get against the body, if that means I need a bigger hammer then so be it.
