Cage looks great. :popcorn:

1TONZR2 · Jan 25, 2014

looks great!

only thing I am not a fan of are those seats. Looks like you are way to tall for them and you could smash your head on the cage....

thanks, I'm just a tick under 6'0, there's about 5" of head room to cage, plus I had my coveralls on, It should be alright

He means the headrest is too low for your height.. you might hit the X brace. He and I both had short seats like those and similar clearances. You could install a detached headrest pad and be good.

Rig looks sweet! :drinkers:

jthacker29 · Jan 26, 2014

I had the same seats in my other rig and never had any issues with them being short, but I was actually thinking about a detached head rest just to be safe, there's plenty of room behind my head to the x bracing, but might be smart to get them anyways,
