Converting Std rollbar into something more useful

Post by yotaman »

With the help of Regardt from B Con 4x4 (Tokkelos) in Krugersdorp who perfected my concept of a "storage rollbar" into a very good looking, and practicle Rollbar

Rear (I added a high level brake light just to round it off!

We used a donor roll bar for the back curved pipe. The main std bar was finished in chrome or SS which was just too much BLING for my liking. This Regardt solved by sand blasting and powdercoating the entire thing. This rack is extremely strong and will carry a big RTT with ease! :cooldude:
