One tip for you if you're going to paint it. Painting chrome isn't fun, because it'll peel right off if you don't scuff it up. And chrome doesn't scuff too easily.

My bar was paint over chrome when I got it, and was peeling. After sandblasting it down, i repainted with gloss black.

Ditch the rollbar, keep the brushguard is my vote. Nice truck!

Yep it's BS, I just made it up.



See those hugs gaping holes in each corner...where I had to CUT the roll bar out cause all the bolts were rusted and the roll bar was rusted to the bed.

^ah man wabbit, way to go and ruin some perfectly good sheetmetal again...



I don't really care for those roll bars at all.

If you drill the holes for the bar, and then paint all around the area, underneath, do you think it would still be a problem.

have it painted black and it'll be nice

Absolutely not. Thats what I did, and I used antisieze on the bolts, my truck had a rollbar in it for 20 years, and I took it out and installed a different one, the previous owner did the same as me and theres not one spot of rust.

Would you put a 5-point harness on the passenger side because it "looks good," but not bolt it to the frame?

Think of it as false advertising.

My vote: Get rid of the "fake roll bar."

I like roll bars, but im not a fan of that particular one. I like the simple single tube ones. Im currently deciding if im gonna toss mine in favor of a toolbox (I have no effin storage!). I don't want to drill into the cab roof for a light bar though!

Here you go Jay! I know a few dudes the run them, the Owner of BlueyFab runs one, and Algranger has one, I reccomend gettin one, it'd look killer on your truck, or it'd get caught on tree's either way... I know you can find them cheaper then that too.

mikepr55

if your going to paint it do it rite your truck looks bitchin either way it's up to you of course so what ever you like is the ?

Jay351

So there is there any drilling required?

Trustyrusty

Nope!, mounts to the rain gutters!

Jay351

I guess a gutterless mount system would be needed for me.. Then the need to run wiring....
