Full Version: Picked Up My New 4 Seat Cage Today

I really like the cage so I thought I would share it with you guys. It was raining today after I put it on so I only have pics of it in the drive way. I bought it raw because I will be doing a bed delete so a couple things need to be removed and a couple things added. Notice that the light bar is radius also, it adds a nice touch. All TIG welded and the best part for me is that the rear section is 51" wide between the bars so my 48" bench will fit nicely. Jimbo at FU2 was a really cool guy and this fit well into the very tight budget I have to work with. Hopefully I can post some pics next week of the rhino with the cage and the new wheels.

Dave, check him out for sure. His prices are great. He does really nice work and I must have emailed Jimbo 100 times in 3 days with questions and he always got right back to me. With the answers I wanted to hear. He showed me around the shop and he has some really cool builds going on.

I thought so too, I really liked the lines of this style. He has another radius cage that is a little more extreme. There are alot out there but some peeps wanted literally twice as much money for nothing more than what I got.
duckfart
Its got every thing, radius, gussits,cooler rack,grab handles,light bar. Do they have a web site?

Nice cages for sure. And good prices.

I really like my FU2 cage.

It looks like they can build a decent cage, Its a cross between Long Travel industries and the Roof of an SDR cage Their Long Travel looks a little scary with the geometry and wheel offsets they are using. I guess its better than wheel spacers.

I'm afraid to start drilling holes in it to fish my wires through the tube.

Nice cage but what a stupid name for your company "FU2" sounds like a place I'd stay away from my $.02

But what's in a name. We buy stuff from UTV Crap too. tongue.gif

It's Fabrication Unlimited. Apparently that name was taken so he added the 2 i guess.

got him emailing me some pics of 2 seaters as we speak. Can't believe the prices he quoted me for it.

Jimbo is a good dude for sure. His prices are unbeatable. I was quoted from the others, $1300 to $1650 for what he advertises for $800. He could call his shop "big fat gay UTV stuff for Ugly dufusses" and I would still buy it. I have not heard a bad comment from anybody who actually owns his stuff. He has a LT kit for the rhino minus the shocks for $1699. Let me know what you think of the 2 seat cages.

Jimbo built a cage for my teryx. I had some issues with alignment and the pro one doors I was using. I called him up and asked what we could do about the problem and he said bring it back. Three days later He called me with a perfect fit and redesigned cage to fit the doors. He is a stand up guy who stands behind his product. I would definitly recommend fu2 to anyone, after Jimbo took care of the problem and did it fast.

Seriously? Every time I've gone mid April it was 100+. You must be really good at picking dates. Either that or I suck at it...

Jimbo makes some of the sweetest SxS stuff around, A+ in my book.
lbz duner
anyone have one of his 2 seat Teryx cages? He sent me a couple pics of Rhino cages but want to see one on a Teryx which he had none of.

$550 for a 2 seater mounting in the bed, not the bed delete like in the picture.
lbz duner
Here's ya go a 2 seat Teryx cage he did for me for $550 OTD. Only complaint is he forgot a whip tab which I didn't catch till I got home.
throwinrox
That looks great. I would have you bring me the cage and I could weld the whip tab on there for you if you need me to, but my welding skills would probably weaken the cage.

Buddy came over and we knocked it out yesterday. Appreciate the offer Don!

Wires run yet? PC done yet? Does it go any faster now? What's it made of? Any completed pic's?
That cage does look VERY nice. I'm jealous. At least you got 1 trip in this season.

No wires run yet, no PC just rattle can for now. Yes the cage gained me 7 hp. It's made of super space age polymers developed by NASA for the space shuttle program. Finally I have something for You to be jealous of. And yes I got 1 day trip in.
