Stumbled across them through a Trade Me listing for their trayback Vitara on 35s.... looks like some cool work they do.

there isn't a lot of strength in exos anyway they are only any good for a wee lie down or for getting hooked up on trees and branches to do a bit of body damage, theres a whole pile of national trials trucks out there with the tops of cages chopped off and new ones welded on top to meet the new increased height rules now :D looks like hes made some nice front bars in some of those pics on the website

yep. no actual design rules as such for exo cages on cabed 4x4's/trucks, the LTNZ classes them as heavy duty ladder racks provided the barwork is within 100mm of the body
