steve Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 Does anybody have a good pic of a rollbar that came with these trucks. At the pic n pull I have located one that is laying in the back of an 88 pioneer but was never bolted in to the truck for what ever reason I can have it for 20 bucks but want to make sure its right. and since its not bolted in that makes it better its in great shape.
Pete M Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 General rule of thumb: stock ones bolt to the wheel wells, aftermarket don't, they bolt to the floor.
GirsMJ86 Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 here is a swb one: Image Not Found here is the lwb one: Image Not Found Alex

JOMJ87 Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 I used one fromma ranger and it mounts to the wells to and looks good. here's a pic Hope this helps. You can see the mounts in the bed and i think thats kinda how the stockers are. Cole
GirsMJ86 Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 the one cole has bolts up just like the stock swb one i pictured. i can still get pics of it if needed since it is factory. Alex
steve Posted October 7, 2006 Author Posted October 7, 2006 thanks guys this one looks like the one longshot has. I'm going to grab it Monday. thanks everyone.
JOMJ87 Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 I thought it was exactly the same as the MJ ones but i wasnt sure. My grandpa gave it to my of his ranger cause he didnt need it ne more. It can stock with the truck. :cheers: Cole

They work pretty good for what they are...nothing fancy. Heat is your friend with that thing..... CW
Bonkers Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 here is a swb one:Image Not Found I'm pretty sure that's aftermarket. I don't remember the Mj coming with a chrome rollbar (I could definitely be wrong) but the SWB one I had many years ago bolted into the wheel wells. I went crazy trying to find a LWB for my second Mj but only found SWBs. When I bought my SWB I picked up the first stock one I found.... it was that LWB. I have been scrounging the local part fields lately for an OEM SWB but haven't found any here on the coast. Best bet is to take a pic and we'll let you know if its OEM.
87manche Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 so you've got a stock LWB rollbar? Oh he's found the precious!!!
GirsMJ86 Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 so you've got a stock LWB rollbar?Oh he's found the precious!!! thats funny, but oh so true. bonkers - i have a parts manual for MJs that have everypart listed along with their numbers. there was a factory chrome rollbar. you could get either chrome or black, same with bumpers and roo bars. Alex
CWLONGSHOT Posted October 11, 2006 Posted October 11, 2006 I picked one up tonight!! Drove past ir this AM on the way in to work.... It looked narrow but the price was right....$80!! :eek: :D Its LIKE NEW, TOO!! It was narrow, but I have a plan on how to make it work... Check out my MJ projects thread to see more... These are just shots of it SITTING in my bed. No its NOT attached. CW

Alex Hi Alex; I picking up a NOS MJ roll bar in TN soon, but I'm not positive it's for LWB or SWB. Do you have the part numbers?
JeepcoMJ Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Alex isn't online right now...his computer is down, so he can only sign into msn with his xbox 360. he hasn't been on the site for 2 months almost but I talk to him fairly regularly. I will make sure to ask and will post the info if he's got it. also, i'm heading to his house in july to pick up all of his comanche parts...and I mean everything. he's just keeping his comanche, and probably one of his motors so that he can pull the jasper and rebuild it. he's getting a rust-free shortbed comanche box from me in exchange, along with a new driver's side cab corner and rocker panel that I plasma'd off of a parts truck I had.

HOrnbrod Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 Hey CW - sent you a PM on this topic - thanks, Don
offroader461 Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 what year rollbar will work..ive been trying to locate one for the MJ but can't seem to find one...just wanna know what year ranger that would work the best....thx :D
Tracker Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 Here's a rollbar from a '95 Chevy S-10 put in an '87 MJ shortbed [/img] The fit was pretty good. A couple bolts on the driver's side were kind of tough to get to but nothing the right tool couldn't handle. On the wheel well mounts I made a couple wedges out of square tubing to go under the holes that were on the curve of the wheel well. [/img] $100 bucks on craigslist, and it came with the 2 KC marshmallow roasters on top
CWLONGSHOT Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Sorry for the delay in my responce... I have been away since last Thursday wheeling. :brows: :cheers: ;) I answered the PM and posted up in your other thread on the topic as well. I don't have that roll bar to measure. Sorry man... CW
offroader461 Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 i got one on the line from a nissan hardbody...i think a 95...would that one work in my MJ?? He said he bought it for an S10
