Did RideTech stop making the Tiger Cage ??

Another simple project that took much longer then I expected.

Swapping out the fuse for a circuit breaker.



I love using these washer for grounds on sheet metal.



I needed to borrow the Rubber Booty & the nuts from one of the other circuit breakers. Next car show I go to I am going to buy more of them.



Mounted









I sleeved the wire with the Tech Flex Abrasion wrap just because it looks better and offers great wire protection.





I use this little trick to make sure I know exactly where the heat shrink needs to start.



My OCD is Killing me





Yep, I have issue's




Being honest I was convince I cut the wire short and thankfully I did not.









Everything I used today just to run one wire.

After dinner I ran out to the garage since I had about an hour before I was going to call it a night. ( Going to Dinner with the Wife ))



It's full



Not sure if I am going to use both door pulls on the car but I have the second set just in case.

Since the intake tube is just literally just hanging off the throttle body I need to finish the support bracket.



I have desire to remove the fan shroud to make holes so Self-Taping screws to the rescue.



I can't seem to find my 1/4" adapter for my drill so I am going to improvise.



Since the cardboard bracket won't be strong enough I am going to run over to High Speed Welding after work
tomorrow and have him make me an aluminum version.



yep, the screw is just short enough.



Well, I didn't notice it was crocket till I pulled the tape off.



Oddly enough the tube runs up on a slight angle to it works perfect



It's hard to see but there are rubber grommets the bolts go through so I will be using Nylock Nuts so I don't have to
worry about them coming loose. You can also see the bolt that is on the intake tube that I will be using to secure
the intake tube to the bracket.





I am going see if I can find a shorter nut as it doesn't need to be this thick.



Looks like everything worked so off to the powder coater we go.

Very early in the morning I dropped off my cardboard template and as Dennis at High Speed Welding to duplicate this in Aluminum.



Picked it up after work and also some new bolts for the upper control arm.
