309 Sd Cage

Recommended Posts

Dumb question guys, will a 309 SD 6 point bolt in cage fit a 205? Are they similar fitment?

Probably similar, but different and will need modification i'm sure, so IMO hardly worth it as it'll make the cage possible unsafe, well, will certainly void any certification it may have.

Does anyone know the difference. What changes would likely need to be made? I have found a cheap SD for sale you see. I was always under the impression the 205 and 309 shared similar floorpans/chassis. Learn new stuff everyday :)

To start with I expect the 309 cage will be sligtly wider to match the bodyshell so it would need trimming down to fit snugly inside a 205.

The 309 has a longer wheelbase too I believe so that means the rear mounting points could be further back.

The floorpan is actually quite different. Some 309 cages mount to the rear arches, and the sills of 309's are very boxy, protruding into car more-so than a 205, so the cages don't need a box, just a plate to mount them...

 

There's probably a few more points too...
