Muncher Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 I'll do my best tommrow and try to get them for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muncher Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Not sure if I'll be able to get the angles but the main support is a 90 degree I'm pretty sure and I think the kickers are probably 45 or steeper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 something that might help out is that if someone with a loose rollbar could lay it down on some wrapping paper, trace the entire thing out, then fold it up and mail it to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be very nice. If we can't get it close with Muncher, that will probably be my next step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried getting measurements but it's very difficult when installed especially with a truck box between the supports. The top is NOT 90°, there is a rise so there is a slight peak at the center of the top bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvagedcircuit Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Is there anyway someone can confirm this dimension on a long bed sport bar? This is an old photo @HOrnbrod posted. Is there anyway someone can check if 36in is the correct dimension for the length of the wheel well support tube, measured from the weldment on the main loop to the flange mount on the wheel well bracket? I picked up a hacked up longbed sport bar here: https://comancheclub.com/topic/72136-is-this-an-mj-roll-bar/ I am looking to weld it up back to original condition. The last photo shows the current condition of the bar. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have forgotten haha They are measured to the best of my ability. Of course it flipped I wasn't quite seeing 39" on mine 38 1/2 roughly. Looks like his measurements were close to mine. I measured on top of the feet too. he may have flipped the sport bar over to get an better measurement from bottom of foot to bottom of foot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvagedcircuit Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 Awesome! Thanks for confirming @The86manche! Now I can cut some pipe to the right dimension and complete the missing portion of the rollbar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
