Default Re: roll bar/ roll cage

Most kits are a compromise as far as fit,verses ease of installation for the general public. . ...Pre notched kits still need major fitting.
The main hoops are usually ok,but the majority use a halo bar for the cage ,which is ok on some older large cars, but makes keeping the front bars out of the drivers line of site very difficult on newer cars with high windshield angles.
The halo is also usually inboard more ,so it puts the window net much closer to the driver at the top.
S&W's are good kits,I've used a lot of them for customers who want to keep the cost down and a quick turn around ,and want a generic cage.
I usually order them with longer legs on the hoops and fit them to my liking.
