I like them welded in vs. theswingout style because of the added rigidity to the chassis.



I assume that is the pass side pic. the addition of one additional per side tube, from the bottom corner of the side bar bend, diagonally down to the base of the main roll bar, would substantially increase the rigidity of the roll bar system significantly, for very little additional weight, cost, or effort.

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
