Roll Bar kits for early a-body ??
Anyone out there that has roll bar kits for the early abody darts? 6 -point bar.
Thanks for any info !!
402,
I don't think anyone carries model specific roll bar kits or cage kits (except for brand X cars) You may get a supplier claim they fit a certain model/year but all of them are "trim to fit" types.
Jegs, Karbelt (CDN), Summit, S-W Race Cars and Chris Alston Chassis are all a good starting point for kits.
I suggest having one bent up for your application and weld it in yourself or have someone do it professionally.
FYI - memorize the NHRA or IHRA specs (for the ET you're running) on roll bars/cages before you start your project. You can never spend enough $ to protect yourself.
And another thing; always build to what E.T. you eventually want to run. There's nothing like tearing out a good peice of equipment and starting over to ruin your day.
I've seen too many racers get DQ'd at tech inspection (at quality tracks) for out of spec or out of date safety related items. I know some tracks don't look very close but you never know when a tech inspector is going to check your vehicle "by the book".
