snapon Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Ive got a km baja that comes with the steel rollcage . Im after the black plastic one which comes with the hpi baja 5b but cant find them or a price anywhere ! Rc modelz list them but not in black . Cant find it on abbots , freepawn etc etc . Anyone got a spare for sale or know where to get one ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snapon Posted June 23, 2013 Author Share Posted June 23, 2013 You guys are good ! It maybe cos im just searching for roll cage instead of individual parts lol . My bad !! Do you know if the km plastic one is same thickness as the hpi one ? Reason i ask is the window brackets are to big to fit and clamp around the km steel bars . The km steel bars are thin and when i looked at the 5b in shop window the black plastic looked much thicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl160180 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 km cage is the same thicknerss as the hpi mate, I had uber windows fitted to my hpi cage, snapped a cage bar and replaced with km and they're exactly the same thickness I complete cage (minus light pods etc) from rc modelz works out at Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snapon Posted June 23, 2013 Author Share Posted June 23, 2013 Great stuff i will order that lot . Only thing they are out of stock is the roof pod . Am I gonna need the bolts/screws etc to bolt it together as my steel one is all one piece and also thin so cant fit my windows lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markyboy Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 What do you guys think about the steel rollcage compared to the plastic one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitroholic Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I prefer plastic for a rollcage ... has a bit more give to absorb a crash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madnickuk Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 anyone know if you can get a metal Baja style rollcage for fg marder/monster ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitroholic Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Never seen one for sale. I needed something similar for 'project Shorty' so I made my own. Metal rear section with a couple of plastic plugs in the front to screw onto the stock front loop. You can then drill it through to take up the stock rear mount points.
