Default Opinions on S&W Roll Bar And Cage Products?

Hi all,

I just found out these guys exist and called them up today and set up a vendor account.

http://www.swracecars.com

I'm just looking for opinions here. Have you used or seen one installed? I'd like your opinion on it please. I don't want to sell a product that is not quality.

TIA

i have installed 2 S&W cages in cars recently. they are a good company to deal with and have pretty good prices. the cages obviously need to be modified a little to fit well, but i'm sure every prebent cage is the same. here is a couple links, scroll down in the first one for some better pictures. the pictures at the beginning of the post suck dick. there is also some good cage info in the threads.

S&W has been nothin but a pleasure to deal with. cages are bent per application and shipping is always extremely quick. Prices are very good as well. Lohatch installed a full 10pt cage in our race car and everything went quite smooth.big thumb up to S&W

you will just want to make sure what the intent of the car is. i dont believe the S&W cages would qualify for road racing or autoXing.

S&W can make their kits SCCA and NASA compliant but the kit cost is more since the tubing costs are more.

They also have tons of options like X's in the doors and main hoop which a a huge for me.

The basic kits are drag race application or street application only since the tubing is ERW equivilant.

Thanks for the info everyone!
