Does anyone have any first hand experience using Kens Kustom Chassis prebent and pre notched cage kits?
Thanks in advance for any feedback

I have. For a prebent cage it is great. Fitment was pretty good, but not as good as a custom cage.

I have there chromoly 10pt cage in my car atm. It does not slide in like a glove. You'll have to cut and notch a bit to get it to fit.

I had one in my eg Hatch years ago. The bends are all good you just need to modify lengths of pipe. there all notched from what I remember. Good fitment overall.

Sounds good. Does anyone have any other recommendations for pre notched cage kits?

SandW has good reviews.

Check out a thread I did on this topic awhile ago:

Only reason why I went with a KensKustom over S&W was the halo design.

If i remember corrrectly you can ask them to not notch and leave the piping a bit longer so you can get a tighter fit. I recall another thread a long time ago where it was talked about.
