softtoper and roll bar

Aloha
By chancer..does any member have the soft topper soft top and also a roll bar in their blazer? does the roll bar fit under the soft top? if so can you please measure the height of your roll bar from the bottom of the truck bed liner to the top of the roll bar as I don't want to make a huge mistake on my rebuild of my 70..

Re: softtoper and roll bar

I'm running a Softopper with a roll bar. I'll get a measurement for you tomorrow, weather isn't exactly being the most cooperative to allow me to run out to the carport and check at the moment.

Re: softtoper and roll bar

Is there a measurement someone can give me on the height of the roll bar?

Mine looks like 41 1/2" to the top of the roll bar. No soft top but at least that should get you close

Mine touches the soft top and I'm measuring 42" to the top of my roll bar from the high part of the bed metal. I'll get a few pics and try to post later tonight.

Mine is approximately 42" to the top - hits on the corners slightly and has some clearance across the top when static.
