I have the rollcage almost installed - a couple of more brackets to secure the center piece still needed. Here's what it looks like:

Another thing - I looked at the front tires after my first 15-20 minutes of running the other day and they're getting chewed up already. The rear tires look fine. I know the fronts are designed for the 2wd Baja 5b, but I wasn't expecting to wear them out so fast. I might try taping them to see if that helps - I know some people running the 5b tape their tires. Otherwise, I might have to run the rears all around.
