I got the Losi XXX-SCB rollcage and body today, and I'm amazed by how close it is to my steel cage, when all I had was a few photos and measurements curtsey of Matt Sunderlage
Image

I knew my cage was wider than the Losi cage, but it's very close in shape and length

Bin messing with the Losi cage for my SRB buggy
I had allot of ppl asking it that cage would fit on the Rustler or Slash so I bought the cage to answer there questions ..And when I tried to order it from Horizon ...I GAVE UP trying to register ...Then I remembered Amain hobbies and in just under 5 min I had the parts ordered ...I tell you there's a big difference in online shops regarding how easy it is for a guy in Denmark trying to order from America

Testing with standard rear shock tower
Image

Image

Image

Image

Then I redesigned the rear shock tower to accept the rear part of the Losi cage
This could also be used on the standard tower, just cut it below the bottom cage mounting holes and bolt it to the rear of the standard tower

Image


Image

Image

Next :
Mounting the Losi front bumper, Or can I use the `Pede bumper :O.o:

Oh Sorry for the long reply ...Have a great weekend

you lost me twice: when you tossed the metal frame you made so nicely and now again: I thought you were aiming to have it look like this?

Nice pinstriping: your own design? Decal or paint?
