Default Re: 8 point roll bar comparison

Thanks for the recommendations guys. I spent a good amount of time speaking with a local fabricator. He's going to custom bend me an 8 point roll bar, also he's going to make the down bars that will allow me to retain the back seat. As well as supply me with the subframe connectors and a driveshaft loop.

It's Jeff Blevins, Checkerd Racing, out of Bedford, Indiana. It's a mild steel roll bar, 1 3/4 x 0.134 tubing. Pricewise he's very competitive, as in he's about the same as a Jegs or an S&W kit sans shipping. In addition, I'm supporting someone local.

Once I start installing it, I'll know how good/bad my decision was.
