get a SCORE rulebook for rules.
use DOM or CHROMOLY.
size depends on truck weight. my truck exceeds 4000 so i got 2" .120wall DOM.
i think you'll need 1.75 or something. i suggest DOM if its not going to be a super trophy truck.
for cage pics, go into the "shop" forum and under "show and tell" there are ranger projects and get cage ideas from them. or use "search".

Race Truck - 1 3/4" to 2" .120 4130 chromoly
F$$k off in the desert truck - 1 1/2" .120 mild steel or dom (this might save you alot of $$$$)
