    -pg.5 of "the dog" thread. on the ends its just square plates welded to the inside of the tower. i havent finished it yet but i think you can see the plate welded to the top of the rear seat. im gonna run a tube from each side just below the current bar down to that. itll make a 3pt. brace.

    My front 1 is kick ass, if I can get rear black panels & carpet to cut up I'd buy the rear whiteline bar :twisted
