for you offroad guys, do you have a roll cage or do you just use the "integrated rollcage"? is the one thats built in really any good in a rollover?

The stock bar would help very little, but that would be better than the alternative, thats if you have a full top up to 75, after that I don't know how it would due.. The stock bar is just like the aftermarket roll bars found in trucks, they bolt to the floor..

its an '85 and has a half top...the owner's manual says it has an integrated roll cage (not visible, i guess built into the top above the driver area)

the portion above the front seats is reinforced to make it stronger. it also keeps the truck from bending in the middle

The integrated one would be the peice that is over the driver/passenger area, It sure look's reinforced to me.
