I guess I need to get-up on the times then.. I thought a 4-point and then the a brace on the drivers side for the 5-point is all that is needed for the times you listed? RS23L7 4-Speed

There was a post not to long ago where a prefabbed roll bar didn't meet the thickness requirement and the company who sold it did replace it or refund the guys money. 56 Plaza 63 D100 step side 67 Coronet, 68 Roadrunner, 69 Super Bees, 69 Coronet 500 convertible, 70 Roadrunner Post, 79 D150 360, and a severe case of Mopar a,d,d

I know when I added one to my Challenger about 10 years ago that it was a 6-point minimum down to 10.00 and and at least a 10-point once into the 9s.

You can get by without the pass door bar if you like. But they only sell them as 6 point kits so everyone I know always just does the 6 bar kit. It only makes it safer to have the 6th bar at the pass door and it helps stiffen the car. Ron Last edited by 383man; 12/09/10 04:22 AM.

Ron I just added the extra bar a couple years back before that no one said anything when teching the car the past 16 years IHRA rule book say six point but shows a 5 point I mostly run IHRA tracks and like i said they never said anything when teching the five point I just thought it was time to put it in. get swing out bar kits I'm having them installed on my new 10 point bar. http://www.summitracing.com/search/?keyword=swing%20out%20bar%20kits&dds=1
