Here you go Bean try these you will have to buy a full 6.1m length and probably a minimum of a round $150 worth http://www.atlasmetals.com.au/Adelaide.asp or http://www.vanleeuwen.com/en/worldwide.aspx?region=AUS&opco=1831 |

It's not made in Australia. Canadians make it. Funny how CAMS wont allow the stuff we make here be used for roll cages anymore. It was good enough for Dick Johnson when he went off in his Greens Tuf Falcon. |

It should not have failed like it did. I don't agree with much that CAMS does but I have seen a lot of aluminium roll cages fail when they shouldn't. |

CAMS copy the FIA who are basically French so they want a French std and that's why the (french) Canadians make it. Australian steel should be allowed IMO. M |

Beanie If all else fails, ask Walker Chassis at Houghton if you can buy some from them. You may just get stung with their mark up.... |
