Thinking of installing a roll bar in my Challenger. Nothing major, I Just like the look. Mostly cruising/street car and track on weekends.
I would like to see some ideas of what you guys have in yours. Preferrably street/strip set ups.
What is the minimum bar size you can/would use?
I was thinking of trying to bend some bars to run from the hoop and back between the back seat and the plastic quarter window panel. Something that would be bent to follow the panel shape.
THANKS

roll bar has to be 1 3/4. a cage can be 1 5/8ths. door bars in a E body suck cuz the handle and cank are in the way

This is one of those times that I wish the 3 inch wide seat belt rules didn’t exist.

unless you make the door bars connect right at the front of the front seat you have to bend the door bar as it passes right where the door handel is,and no you can now just reach out and grab the outside door handle to open the door as the inside door handle moves also lol ask me how i found that out
so after a hour i finaly got door open then had to relocate the inside door handle (cuda) 2 inches lower
like was said before they suck
