There are absolutely zero "roll bars" for sale on the market off the shelf for modern trucks.

A real "roll bar" is going to require a shop with the know-how to custom cut tubing and actually weld base plates to the frame through the truck bed.

What you are probably referring to is a "sports bar" which is nothing more than something to attach lights or other doo-dads to. All of these will be simply crushed under the weight of a roll over like tin cans. Rule of thumb; if it attaches to the bed caps, it is useless ****.

In fact is can be quite challenging to even find a picture of a real roll bar because the market is so full of lying vendors and manufacturers that Google search is drowned out by garbage marketing.

You have to basically look up vintage 80's trucks to see what a real roll bar consists of...
