    Hi I am in the process of restoring a 55 cj5 my dad wants me to install a roll bar. I was going to make it for my high school welding project and I no that in its self sounds dangerous but we know a few professional welders who will give me advice and tips. Anyhow I was wondering if anyone had the dimensions for a early cj5 roll bar, thanks.

    There was no factory roll bar. IIRC around the 60s the Smittybilt roll bars became popular. I'd measure mine, but it's buried in a storage unit.
