I think I am losing count... How many buggies do you have now? Your trailer set-up should be interesting..

Hey Neal,
I bet CiCi is wondering when she gets a buggy? :evil: :evil:

So long as you keep the 4-seater, everything will be fine. The family wagons need to stay together. :lol: :lol:

I have an Invader frame and am curious, where are you adding bars? Mine has an added cross member behind the lower front end clamps and a diagonal across the flat top. My frame also has an added cross member over your legs along with two longitudinals running back to the windshield frame.

Gotcha, rollover stiffeners. Any chance experience with Invader rollovers require these be added? I've not seen an Invader roll yet.

Would you mind taking pictures when you do this.
I know the "X" brace from the roof, but what exactly would a "kicker to the windshield be"?

I guess I'll just go and add those braces too. I think your wife and you will like the Invader. I have mine set up for fast-trailing and really like the smooth ride. Let us know how it turns out.

Looks good Brandon....you may also want to look at adding two vertical bars on each side from side bars to floor bars where the diagonal braces meet (below the windshield bar in the picture ) I have seen the floor bars bend there with out them .

I know sandy cant wait for a warm week end !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
