Re: roll bar thread?







Hard Dog M2 Hardcore Hardtop Double Diagonal with Harness Tabs ;)
I'm running this exact setup. Same car, same seats, same roll bar, same harness setup.

The stock wind deflector fits well with the roll bar but not with the harnesses. I'm willing to cut the wind deflector to make it fit but doesn't really look like a posible sollution as the harnesses sits so close to the mounting points of the wind deflector.

Any good ideas for a wind deflector sollution for this setup please?

Re: roll bar thread?

i'm not sure if i should start a question/answer/help thread. pardon me.
I don't see alot of HD Duece bar around here. I've seen a couple of boss frog but from what I've read on this forum its bitch to install. Is d Duece any different? HC, M1 & M2 seem to be every1s favorite. but i like dble hoop look..

Re: roll bar thread?

As you can see from the pics above, I'm not going to be going with a Hard Core bar. In fact, I've sort of put off buying a bar at all because I'm worried about it being too short to be safe. The standard Hard Core was just too close to my head.

Re: roll bar thread?

I just want a bar that accomadates me. I realize that the hardbar is made for all tops, cars etc. but I have trouble with head/seat clearence (surfboard seats). I was hoping that the extreme would remedy that. Any pics of how/where it mounts as opposed to the sport bar?

Re: roll bar thread?

Make sure the rollbar comes with harness bar, if it doesn't, purchase a bolt in harness bar for it. Then make sure you look up online the proper way to wrap harnesses around the bar as well.

Re: roll bar thread?

I planned on getting a hard dog with a welded in bar, not sure what kind though.. although i was told that id probably have more room with a bolt in bar, id still rather go with a weld in..

what about the.... "Side Braced Ace
w/ Main Hoop Diagonal and Harness Bar in Rear Braces"



would i have more room for the harnesses if the harness bar was welded into the main hoop or the rear braces? and my paps knows how to do all that harness stuff he's been racing sprint cars for over 20 years, so ill just have him help me with that, but thanks for the help and the tip on the harness mounting!

The main hoop is behind the seat, putting the harness bar in the rear braces doesn't give you any extra room.

I had an Ace, and it is a joke.... really small bar. My friends nicknamed my car the handbag, because it looked like a little handle on top. That said, I bought it second-hand from a pretty short fella that did HPDEs with it.

I mean, look at this thing (especially in relation to the seats):



Driver seat is slid all the way back, and then reclined as far as possible, so its fairly upright. My head was just above the bar in driving position (I'm about 6'2")

Re: roll bar thread?

IMHO, the Ace is a joke of a bar unless you're under 5'8" or so. Just look at where the bar is in relation to those seats!
you have a nb2 man, you should know that the seats are abnormally tall backed. Mine contacts the hardbar like crazy, as does my head.

I'm also looking at the ace...
