OK first post here. I've seen roll bars like this on a couple trucks, mostly super duty's, but can't seem to find one. I'd really like to have a roll bar without the kickers in the middle of the bed.

Damn, I likey. I haven't seen a rollbar in years. I had no idea anyone was still making them.

Oh, and Howdy.

Welcome TM8!
The rollbar in your pic looks to be purely decorative.
With the supports mounting to the bedrails, it surely
can't hold any weight. Don't know who makes it, I
have never seen one quite like it before.

Nice truck u have there how wide are those tires? and what width rims are u running?

Im not sure about the light bar u posted (as we all know, roll bars are connected to the frame for structural stability, what most people refer to as roll bars are mainly only decorative light bars) but I like this one and may be more along what u are looking for

No offense Buck, but I like the one he posted better. I like the look of that thick tube rollbar effect better than those skinny ones.

Buck

To each his own. I am just not a big fan of all the un-necessary tubing along the bed....too over the top for me.
I agree that thicker tubing looks better but Im just not a fan of the design of that one. But hey thats what I love about modding trucks, you can make it your own. No one else has to like it, as long as you do...

I have the go rhino bar, and it is awesome, it is very sturdy (its definatally a light bar, not even close to a roll bar) and they have awesome customer service!

I love it for night driving, and it is 10 times better than having bumper mounted fog lights.

dewman

It may be better than having bumper mounted fog lights but, around here in Maryland, you cannot use lightbar lights for anything but off-roading. Highway use is prohibited.

I totally agree with dewman, the thicker bar is what I want and realize it's completely cosmetic, but hey it looks good and holds a couple lights . Does anyone know where I can get one made and how much it would cost?

My tires are 35x13 and the wheels are 20x10. It was tough to find a 20" wheel with 5" backspacing, but I like these ones. No rubbing under normal driving, but if the front suspension is compressed while i'm turning I do get some.
