As being the only driver who has actually been in an accident with a similar device in question, I will not confirm or deny any claims made by any RPG employee or affiliate as to my current personal opinion on the topic.
The only thing I am comfortable saying is the safety cage (as it was referred to) that was in my truck at the time of the accident was a 2 inch .120 wall chromoly tube safety cage that was designed and built by one of the top off-road chassis builders in off-road racing, Jamie Campbell and his staff of Raceco-USA. Since time has passed Jamie Campbell refuses to build another one again that is not 100% weld in with airbags fully removed because of serious safety concerns about how the airbags would react in a side impact collision or roll-over, neither of which applies to my accident.
Do to the fact my cage was designed and fabricated by Raceco-USA who only uses 4130 chromoly material from sources right here in CA, and the fact my accident doesn’t fit the criteria of how the safety cage (or harness bar as the title states) would react in a roll-over or side impact during daily driving when harness’s aren’t in use, and helmets are not being worn, I am not qualified to validate claims made by other people on my behalf.
I will say under no circumstances will SVC be developing a Bolt in Roll Cage, Harness Bar or Safety cage in our product line, thus leaving us with zero dog in this fight.
