I dont know about JUNK. the chromemoly one I got is a basic cage. the bars are straight so they might have to be bent to form the doors like the wolfe but it might actually be what a person is looking for. And I have not put mine in so I dont know if the door bars have to be bent, I would guess not but dont know.
how can a wolfe be that much superior? It is just tubing, either notched or bent or not....

Ok, not trying to hurt any feelings here. The jig notching was poor in design, and the rear hoop doesnt seem to hug the B-pillars very well. The door bars would clear the door panel, but I had to move them in further than I wanted to. The front pieces that go in front of the dash are horrible. And I do mean horrible. If your not worried about fit and trim looking nice, then its ok. And, they weigh much more than a wolfe. Go to WOLFRACECRAFT.com to look at the quality of the pieces. They fit nice all around. Also, the down bars in the back on the Spohn are way too long, and many pieces have to be cut to fit. I hope that sums it up. If you want me to say its econonically priced, OK, but I just added the 400.00 I spent on the Spohn Rollcage, to the 750.00 i got the chromeoly Wolfe for, and its expensive now.
That makes sense and like I said, havent put one in so I am just going by pix I have seen or finished products. But do agree that in the end it probably does cost about the same for either, then it comes down to what you can live with/without.....

I did live with mine, but when talking about racing, we will spend so much on things to gite it more performance. What a lot of people leave out in the equation is the difference in weight. I dont know the exact number, but I had a Spohn in my arms. It took two people to carry. Why not spend the extra dough, just to save the weight. Hell, how many people but the lightweight tubular parts for 400.00, and wont spend an extra 350-400 for a badass, made to fit cage???
Good luck to you, I bought it the first time because I didnt want to wait 2-3 weeks.
I am just giving my honest opinion.
Some people called it my jungle gym with the Spohn, thats all.

I hear ya!
Main reason I never installed it was the weight, even chromemoly it is added weight and I was not finding any more HP to make up the difference so it is sitting in the garage....
