Topic: Short Cab Ranger Interior Space
Hello all.
I'm thinking of running an 80s Ford Ranger at some distant future race but I'm concerned about cramming a roll cage in there. Or I'm concerned about punching holes in the cab for an exterior cage. Either way, I'm concerned.
If you've run an 80s Ranger or at least gotten a good look at one with a cage in it, how are the helmet clearances? Do you have to set the seat a little lower to get headroom? I'm about 6'0 and probably the tallest person on the team.
I would prefer to have only the back stays breach the cab, since they can probably just pass thru the rear window opening. I've found several pictures of various short-cab rangers with roll cages tucked into the cab so I know it can be done, but how tight of a squeeze is it? Tight enough that the judges are going to get out the tape measure?
Thanks!
