Cj5 Roll Bar

Hi, does anyone have drawing/plans/schematic to build a roll bar? It is to fit a 62 CJ5.
Thanks!

 

Prolly depends on where you want it to tie in. If you just want one that sits on the wheel wells, I can prolly get you height.

 

Wheel wells is what I intend to do. My roll bar is for safety on the road. My jeep will probably never see a hill. South Florida is as flat as you can get.

 

If you can't find a used one, check your local 4x4/Jeep bulletin boards and forums for Jeepers that make this sort of thing as a side business.

 

Anything up to 75 fits. Not hard to source. If you like a diy, checkout the Varq thread in builds and fabricators thread. ITLKSEZ is bending one up right now.

 

There was a guy, extreme custom fabrications, I think that sold pre bent kits for various jeeps

 

Yup I have used a few and all were good.

 

Extreme Custom Fabrication
Here is his website.

 

Would this one work for my 62 CJ5?

 

It wouldn't be a drop in fit, I'm pretty sure. How much modifying are you able to do?
The weld your own kits Greevesman posted might be a better option.

 

That thing is a mess. Looks like it was rolled, or just put together poorly.

 

I have looked, believe me! South Florida (all of Florida for all it matters!) is not abundant with any CJs. It does not make any sense, specially since I still have a looong way to go before taking the jeep out, to drive three states over for a roll cage. Not even for a free one! I will keep on looking or if I can find a bender, I will fabricate one myself. I have done worse with less!

 

South Florida is a desert regarding early Jeeps. Everything down here is from the mid-1990's -up, mostly less than 10 years old. The new Jeeps are everywhere. Its rare to even find an old Wrangler in the U-pull yards.

pick&pull once in a blue moon . but they get picked fast
I do know a yard that has a few wranglers . johnsons mustang parts

 

Up here any Wrangler gets pulled immediately by the employees, if they even get to the yard. You never see em.

 

I see jeeps behind every barn here in north Georgia.

 

then you should be a "Collector"

 

That where I have to find them because no yards get them lol

 

I’m keeping it simple
