So who is going to be the first to perform a cage chop on 700-4 that is the first thing i am going to do that is the only thing that dosent appeal to me is the school bus look. Needs to lose around 5 inchs off the top an flattin the bars out from front to back

It is going to happen for sure when i pick mine up it needs to fit in the enclosed with 27" shoes on

I will look into cuting 5" of height out of my 700-2 soon.

Sounds like a fun project! Cant wait to see it!

We will be expecting pictures.

I took the rear roll bar off my M4 just by removing 10 bolts. Since I am a tall guy I do not plan on making the roll bar any shorter.

I'm with you, at 6'7", I much prefer the cage nice and tall. Keeps my melon from dragging if I end up shiny side down.

I haven't gotten my 700-4 yet, but when I do 3" need to come off the top. I am glad there is some discussion on this matter. Mine also needs to fit in my cargo trailer. I was thinking maybe just deflate the tires in and out, but that would be a hassle.

Yea i want it to have a sporty looking bar and drop it down some i am in hopes that they come out with some long travel suspension for these rigs hopefully it happens.

I assume the doors and rear panels will not fit if the roll bar is lowered?

Yes, once you chopped, you'd have to keep on chopping.

I just discovered that with the plastic roof the height is about 81". I have a 74" door on my trailer. Dang, one thing leads to another. I don't think I can even deflate the tires that much!

You could possibly deflate the tires and put a load in the back to lower it down some more.

Have the same problem. I don't think it would of fit without the top either. Mine is an enclosed livestock trailer. It would of been a good place to store it when not in use. Not sure about chopping up the pioneer so it may be time to start looking for a taller livestock trailer.

I would think the soft wouldn't increase any height. With that and deflating the tires I could squeeze in. 78" with out the hard top. I have a 74" door. It does pose a problem. I may go look at a used stock trailer today. Some of them have taller doors than my cargo trailer.

I like the roll cages, I see a customized aluminum top with an area where the the front cage joins the rear to store extra gear. Or maybe when you have 4 people you can put everything on the roof.

Maybe a set of slave wheels with no tires on them and a couple passengers in the back would get it to fit. Then swap the wheels and tires when you get where your going. Seems like a pain but might save you from getting a new trailer.....

Chopped Top

Chopped the top off 5.5in off the back and still managed to use the aftermarket top

 

[toodeep]

That looks good leveled out.
