    My motor isn't really geared for comps or events but I would definitely love to come and have ago (may have to remove the roof tent an few other bits :). I'm tempted to buy another motor something more comp orientated. When's your next comp or punch? Any spare seats?*

    With regards to HD arms etc, I run a steering guard which is bent so clearly has done something and also have HD arms. Again personal preference but works for me. The steering guard protects the steering damper as well as most other things in that area. I wouldn’t go without mine but...

    Hertfordshire Lanes?????

    T45 is used mainly as its super lightweight and more in the competition motorsport, rallying etc. I had a T45 cage in my rally car however every kg counts in one of those. Would be wasted on a defender in my opinion that said I do know someone who has a T45 cage fitted to his defender but he...

    I wouldn't have said bling at all, look at SD why would that make such cages and be renowned for their quality and strength if they where shi* or just bling? I think we may be taking this slightly personal but hey ho :) Blue/Red band is a lower carbon steel and thus softer, so if both cages...

    Hertfordshire Lanes?????

    We will arrange something maybe this weekend. all three vehicles are 90's two are vans and the third a county station wagon. I can certainly show the PP and SD cages however the vehicle with the Whitbread cage is not currently at my house and that’s the cage ideally I would like to show you so...

    Well I think if you’re running a nice motor and not some beaten challenge truck cds is the way to go. If you have the cash then I would 100% go cds, there is absolutely no difference in strength as depending on your cage both comply to current regulations etc and thus are of equal...

    Hertfordshire Lanes?????

    Having owned a blueband cage and brought from whitbread I would disagree entirely, cages are extremely heavy an are more of a hinderance. Maybe better in a comp only vehicle but certainly not when using it for other applications. My cage is Cds giving a higher yield strength to that of blueband...

    Hertfordshire Lanes?????

    My old cage was a whitbread and personally I would say keep well clear. Blueband tube and generally badly put together. I have just changed my for a proper cage and what a difference. I have had many tags on the cage as I have a roof tent, lights, forest wire etc however I plan to go round...
