5ive-t chassis to cage attachment.

[Tommytt1]

I’ve had my used 5ive-t for a little over a month now and just discovered that the cage attaches to the chassis. I ordered all the nuts and bolts to put together and am wondering if it’ll make any difference in handling.
Any thoughts?

I doubt it will make a difference in handling. I personally never noticed it, I never use em.
I just use the clips up front & rear to hold it on.

That’s what I’ve been doing also. I’ll get the rest of the parts tomorrow, then I’ll give it a try.

It's gonna be like the difference between a U-haul moving truck and a Ferrari 308 GTS.

Seriously, I can't see them affecting handling. With the cage completely secured, I believe impact forces are distributed throughout the cage. I choose to run without the screws. Tie the nuts to the cage with some kind of string to prevent loss.

The parts came in, but I’m not home. Hopefully later I’ll try it.
