SW Rollbar
I went to order a SmittyBilt Roll bar from 4wheelparts.com and they told me they do not make them anymore. I called Smittybilt and they confirmed this. I found this place www.swracecars.com that has an 8 point roll bar on sale for $109. Does anybody have one of these installed, and if so can you sent me a picture. Thanks

I have a SmittyBilt in my rig. I have heard that there are serveral places that still have stock of the first gen roll bars. I think one of the sponsors on CK5.com carries them.
The cage you listed sounds good but I'd make sure that you can still get the top on with it installed. I would assume it is a weld in kit too. If you have AC, your side vents may be covered or need to be removed. Please fill out your profile. If we know where you are, we can all help you a little better.

Yes this is a weld in kit and they told me that it would clear the factory top.

Sounds like a good deal then. I think that the front cage addition to the smittybilt bar is more than that price. I'm sure that that cage is stronger too since it is welded and the smittybilts are bolted together (the roll bar portion).
Let us know what you do and, if you buy it, how the install goes.
