Thats an excellent question, and you get a gold star ...

Although it would be "technically" the utmost in strength to connect all of the nodes, we thought it looked better cosmetically than 8 tubular "lines" intersecting in one location.

Either way, its a very stout cage (given the dimesions/space allowed), especially with the type/size of material used and all of the frame "tie-ins".

Tacoma doesn't get a gold star, he's too late...

Thanks for the response. The build looks awesome. I am very jealous of the rigs and the shop.

I've been getting sketchy details from Fox about those replacement parts. Apparently, I'll need to keep on 'em until they can come up with a tracking number.

I'll let you know as soon as they've shipped!

Gotta love the Bobby Longs Yeah, the LS is cool and so are the Axles... But having the Longs brings on the true BLING!!

 

[Herzog]

That rig is ridiculously cool.

hey, question on the fender tube-- why isn't the back of it (towards teh firewall I mean) tied to the shock hoop too? Seems like it would offer a bunch more crushproofing for the fender that way??

Looks freakin' great though.
