Re: Roll cage specifications ? ORANZ

The safety standard covers both exco-cages and internal roll cages. True, but none of the four standards that 4x4 challenges accept specifically say much about exos. They are all written from the perspective of a normal cage. So you have to deduce a few things about how the standards apply to exos....

Re: Roll cage specifications ? ORANZ

Exo cages are a little tricky in so much as none of the rules specifically cover them (not all aspects anyway). There is a little bit of interpreting to do. I have built both of my cages and a mates all to oranz as in my eyes, it's both sensable and reasonably easy to work with. For north island ru...

Re: 1994 Pathfinder Build

With the fans, just incase you hadn't figured it out all ready, you can't just wire them up to run in reverse. You also need to reverse the blade too. The fan blade is shaped to run in one specific direction only. If you look at it you can see the way it is shaped with a slight curve to the blades....
