What we are doing right now is a large production run of 8.50 legal 8 point chromoly cages. We will be doing the standard pre-bent cage and a complete pre-fit(not "jig notched") setup. The pre-fit setup is a 100% accurate fit, no hand tuning necessary. We are now CNC forming these cages! The 8.50 kit will have door bars bent for added shoulder and armrest clearance, and rear bars(over seat or no seat option) and laser cut floor plates. The a-pillar bars are designed to go through the dash at the intersection of the extension panel and the dash carrier. Main structure material is 1.625 x .083 tube, the shoulder bar and short diagonals are 1.25 x .065. All material is USA steel. We will also supply a wire loop and chassis tab for harness attachment purpose. This kit with proper installation and welding technique will pass NHRA/IHRA certification with no problem.

We can make any of these combos available in 10 or 12 point. This addition will add extra rear X brace, a pair of engine bay bars, or both. 10 or 12 point will get you no extra certification level beyond the basic 8.50 kit, but will add rigidity to the chassis. The rear x-brace or bay bars will add 150.00 each set.

The standard pre-bent only cage kit will run 525.00 plus a flat rate of 140.00 shipping in central US. Far west states, southern FL and TX, and ME may require minimal freight surcharges.

The complete pre-fit cage kit will run 795.00 plus a flat rate of 140.00 residential or business shipping in central US. Far west states, southern FL and TX, and ME may require minimal freight surcharges.

In order to get this group purchase done we will need a 50% deposit on all orders, and we need a minimum of 15 committed to offer these prices. If someone is interested in a multiple kit order we will be willing to work with you on a special freight quote.

Once we get to the 15 minimum mark we will give a guaranteed ship date, but the way things are going right now the pre-bent(not notched) kit will ship in approx 3 weeks, the notched kit will be 6 weeks. The sooner we get the 15 committed orders the sooner the kits will ship.

Eric,

I am interested in the pre-fit cage. What would the price be complete with Dual Billet (the high quality) swingouts, and a window net kit?

Thank you

The window net kits are pre-formed and include all necessary hardware. Cost is 100.00 included with the cage kit.

The billet swing outs are a real nice male/female slot clevis type and will run 125.00 per door. The cost of these units are a bit higher than the standard clamshell type from Comp Engineering, but the install is much easier and a very clean look.

Normal price, which is the same as it always has been but is going up after this sale, is 875.00 for the pre-notched. Residential shipping is 175.00 for a total of 1050.00 shipped. This sale price is 935.00- a savings of 115.00 or about 12.5%. Now... compare this to the other popular "jig notched" kit out there that is 1100.00 shipped, a savings of 165.00 and a guaranteed ship date. Considering the amount of labor, materials, and overhead costs of pre-fitting these kits this is a real good deal!

We never got enough commitment for the big group purchase package, but we still have the best price on the best quality and fitting cage available for the 4th gen f-body cars.

375.00 for DOM seamless mild steel, and 575.00 for chromoly in the 8.50 legal form.

We have a new tubing bender now that is much quicker so the basic cage kits are shipping quickly. Pre-fit cages are available but have to go through the chassis shop for the notching labor and that can take a bit of time.

the $575 chromoly price... the tubes are just cut square on the ends, needing the end user to notch/fit, correct?

im trying to get my own "group buy" in my area so I can load my truck full of roll cages and save on shipping and come see your shop. but its a decent haul from eastern Kentucky to central Illinois. lol if I can get 3 guys total to go in on buying a cage from you guys I can come out ahead.
