    I put a roll bar in a nissan i used to own, it was the worst decision i ever made when it came to a truck. It severly limited my bedspace and what i could put in the back, and i had to drill several holes to install it. It did look cool, but it just wasn't worth it, i ended up pulling it out. Not trying to deter you, just giving you my 2 cents

    And most 'roll bars' won't actually hold up in the event of a roll over since they're mounted to the bed and not the frame.

    That and the thin-wall, non-structural tubing from which they are made. Calling them a "roll bar" is mis-leading at best. Many refer to them as "bed bars".

    Too much, thanks TW.
    PM littledvl on TW. He makes a bad ass rollbar, lightbar, headache rack.
    I think he will build to suit.
    I have one and really like it. Search headache rack in 2nd gen "what have you done today" and you will find pictures. Not very savvy on attaching links. Sorry.

    Since that guy/chick is running a body lift, there is a good chance that his/her rollbar might be held in place with zip ties and or chewing gum. I mean look at all the Ebay bolt-on crap on that truck.

    I wish I knew where the pic was of somebody who made a roll bar out of PVC pipes.

    PVC, now that's hot!:rolleyes:

    Oh, I didn't know if it was your truck or not. Now that we've established it's not, that truck is :puke:
    About the only thing right about it is the ARB bumper. It looks like a body lift and a drop bracket lift (maybe), a fake roll bar, tail light guards that don't do a damn thing for protection, a high lift jack and no sliders or rear bumper to jack from, bald tires and hideous stickers all over.

    At least the bald tires are Swampers. They looks like SSR's anyway.

    PVC would protect you about as much as that bar.
