    Boys...

    this 75 CJ5 I am looking at, the photos do not show a roll bar. Did they come with one?

    Can't find any photos of a 75 era jeep that shows the roll bar/sports cage...

    They came with a sports bar. Just behind the front seats.

    Go to Rockhardparts.com They have a bolt together cage with pictures on their website.

    I don't know about a '75, but my '73 came with a Meyers top and no sport bar. The PO was my grandfather and there are no holes in the fender well. So it's possible.

    Mmm. The roll bar was factory installed but optional in 1975 to the best of my recollection. The factory items were painted body color. All roll bars were dealer or owner installed in 1973, and they became available from the factory in '75 (or maybe '74). See the banner photo with the yellow Ren and the guy in the hard hat - like that.

    Sorry, I meant they came as an option. Can't imagine driving one without it though.

    Can't find www.rockhardparts.com website. Can someone post a link.

    Shopping for a weld it kit for the 74 and don't have a fab shop I'm confident in locally.
