An exo cage thread on pirate
http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthre ... hlight=exo

have been looking through most of the photo's but cant seem to find any pic's of what people do with exo's and snorkle's

This hasnt been exo'd but you can work out for yourself how it would work well with the snorkel.

Ken oath. I hope he posts up when he's done.

Needs some bunnings flares methinks

Flares are gh3y
Looks hawt like that

So is it better to use pipe or tube for an exo?
I know that tube is the stuff that is designed for structural stuff but is it necesary on an exo?
I was thinking of using a combo of 32NB and 40NB black pipe on my Lux.
I dont know anybody near me with a tube bender, where as I know a couple of metal fab guys with some nice pipe benders and I can use my cheapy with a dawn die to do some of the basic stuff.
If it is "that much better" to use tube I may just have to shell out on a JD2 bender.
So whats the G O?

aus, ill leave detail till 1madengineer or beebee get on but they use pipe, im pretty sure most use pipe.

I remember reading a pretty comprehensive post detailing what kind of stuff BeeBee used to make his cage. He's been through a couple and knows what works.

Here's some pics of mine







I'll see if I can find any better ones that show it more clearly. But basically the exo is 2" tube and the snorkel is 3" The snorkel was as strong as the exo and was solidly mounted to the cage

Far out willy lux, last time i saw that it looked way different. I saw it a year ago out boondal, you still there looks like it?? Cheers

This is one of the sweetest ones I've seen.

Yep - Rebuilt it again.

I looked at that green one when I did mine, but didn't want to cut the front guards as had to keep the side lights. Looks sweet though. Also wanted that green.

Still hasn't solved the problem of getting round a snorkel.
Anyone exo'd a lux/patrol/cruiser with safari type snorkel??? How'd you get around it???

Thought the gaurd -

Could you make the 2 tubes going up the front pillar out of bigger pipe and use it for the exo and snorkel??

The green toy looks pretty nice .. !

Don't you mean the exo was as strong as the exhaust pipe seeing as how they are made from the same material??????

no they are made from different material and wall thickness tube. The front section of the exo was actually a factory Sierra LWB rear roll bar
