You can also have a swing out bar on the passenger side too, if you want.

Yeah, for fat passengers! Jim

Hey Jim I resemble that. you could put one in the back seat of your SRT4. I remember we were driving aimlessly around Orlando. And when we went over those speed bumps it would have been good to hold on to.
LOL

Phil are you sure about that, is it in the rulebook ? Would make working on the car a bunch easier

Joe, for a stocker, maybe/maybe not. My bracket Duster does have swing
out bars on both sides.

Re: roll cage
 
I know for sure the swing out bar is legal for both sides but I gotta doubt the removable steering wheel in STOCK. Jim

You can have swing out bars on both sides. Mine runs SS with swing outs on both sides. It's certified to 8.50. And it does make it a lot easier to work on.

Joe Schweigert,

OK now per Jim Wahl the swing out bars are legal, I've got a battery
saz-all if you need some help fixing your camero?

I've seen a few stockers with removable steering wheels.

AMCs used GM columns in the 70s.Tom,I'll find out for you if it fits the American columns.
