GC8 Rally Car - Rocker Boxes for the Roll Cage - Subaru FIA Rally Roll Cage Build

[@Zortfellow79]

Also I’m super glad you’re willing to take the time to shoot and edit all of this. I complain that there’s not enough detailed videos of roll cage building but also don’t video or take enough pictures of what I’ve done so far. I’m well aware of my hypocritical behavior. So any thing I ask is out of true curiosity.

[@DirtyGarage]

I appreciate it, hopefully the videos will be of some use.

[@DirtyGarage]

Sorry for the bad upload last night and re-uploading today. Some reason KZbin only got half of the video uploaded

[@rookstar3177]

I was going to say I thought I watched this last night lol since there's more I'll just have to watch it from the beginning.

[@tylermenard3556]

hey bro i love the build.. since when did you weld the front shock towers? and whats the point to that?

[@Wolf.Zachary]

Nice videos man! I'm surprised your channel hasn't blown up yet. I found your channel in my suggested videos and binge watched this ralley series.

[@DirtyGarage]

Thanks dude!

[@DirtyGarage]

Thanks man and Happy Thanksgiving to you too!

Sick build so far

[@Zortfellow79]

I’m getting ready to do the same thing to a L wagon. There’s a video for a wrx roll cage that cover the down bars that’s pretty good

[@DirtyGarage]

I have to check that out. I just finished my down bars a couple days ago, they were definitely really tricky to get the offset correct so they would line up with the roof line and A pillars.

Hey you’re doing a great job man keep going I wish you could do my Subaru like this one ha ha hey the last bit of the video you left your three takes including the ones I think you meant to edit out

[@DirtyGarage]

Thanks completely missed those parts haha

[@johnleca]

good stuff. how about card board?

[@Zortfellow79]

Dig it I was just looking for a video on rocker boxes. The time attack cage on TFS looks like it didn’t have a bottom plate. Or I just didn’t see it

[@DirtyGarage]

I don't think he added the bottom plate. A lot of people don't run a bottom plate, it makes sense to me to want a plate on the floor so the thin 1/8th sides of the box don't knife through the floor in a hard rollover. And thanks hopefully it was of some benefit for you!

[@Zortfellow79]

I’m not an engineer and this is my first cage from scratch but I would think that would defeat the point of the plate. You would only have the 1/8 by however many inches your plate is as your contact area.

[@DirtyGarage]

Yeah those were my thoughts exactly, which is why I wanted to add in those plates to the floor

[@Zortfellow79]

Now to figure out how to work the tig petal smushed in a small car

[@lunchcontrolracing]

CAD....ahaa
