Who make the best fitting pre-bent roll cage kit for a 69 Dart? I want it to hug the roof and A pillar real close. Jim

I believe mine`s a Comp eng. pre-fit bar and my fabricator friend said it was one of the nicer ones he`s installed.

My s/w was nice but like everyone else you gotta trim to fit.

I put an 8-point roll bar in from http://autoweldchassis.com. I know it isn't a cage but Ron Showers can set you up with a real nice cage. I installed my roll bar, I asked Ron to make the bars so I wouldn't have to remove any interior door components and he bent the bars very well. It was a simple install and it was my first install. Nice precise bends and the only trimming was the back bars to the trunk area.

chris alstons chassis works has really nice stuff. but, to get the best fit, i would go to a chassis shop and have them custom bend it for you! I worked at one here in ohio and my cage in my valiant is awsome!!! I cut the comp engin. crap out to do everything custom! what a diff!!!

Thanks to all of you for your replies. Looks like the cost of the tubing would be about $200. The Chris Alston kit is $285. Don't know what shipping would cost, guessing $100. I have a friend with a bender. Not sure which way to go. Jim

Id say if your friend knows how to use that bender, bend one up yourself.
