This is a 6pt cage made with 1.75" DOM tubing. Someday I may add a rear halo for the full family cage

Keep searching, it's in here! Burt, get working on that halo, I'm still looking for ideas! Heck with the roll bar, go for the full cage!

I'd consider the factory bar to be more of a light bar than a role bar.

Judging from the pic, I'm with Burt, looks like 1.75 tubing.

Are you going to be building one?

I wouldn't trust a factory roll bar to save my life. I think I have a S&W kit. The back legs bolt in at the front hoop.

Thanks for the pics Guys

I was mainly just wanting to determine if mine was a factory one but after looking i dont think so. I got some 2000 silverado seats and they wont go back because of the roll bar so I will most likely get a cage made.
