Will have pic in cab in next couple days if I can figure out how to do that.Did the same in the 93 and is legal for GT1 so this on should be for the 99.

You needed to set the file size when you scanned them. If you would like to send that large file to me I will reduce it and send it back to you so that you can post it. I can also reduce it and post it to zing.com for you too. Your choice and yes I would like to see your roll bar. mikesmotorsport@mediaone.net

1.1 MB pic file has to be a BMP

save the file as a JPG

this should get it WAY down in size...

Ruslow, I am currently modifying a '00 for Ed and we would like to get as much info as possible on this installation.

Can I get info on M&M Motorsports?

My site is www.rdmcars.com
Ed's site is www.onelapofamerica.com

Check out His truck on both of our sites...

Thanks.

Nice work!!! I know how hard it can be to fabricate a rollbar for a stock vehicle. Now that you have the hard part done I hope you will consider adding a cross brace to triangulate the whole assembly,,,once again nice work..
