Huge bonus would be bolt in front plates with rear plates that put the mounting in double shear. Having to weld the front plates is what is keeping me from buying the Autopower at the moment. |

I can't say for sure how we're going to do the mounting plates yet, but yes, double shear is a huge priority, and the roll bar will be weld-free. No sense welding plates in AND bolting stuff together. All the chassis work of a weld-in, with all the stiffness of a bolt-in? No thanks. I will say we have NO intention of competing with Autopower's price point. Our bars will be made in the US to tight tolerances for consistency and ease of installation. That's not possible at their pricing, and we absolutely prioritize quality over price. |

This is great to hear. I'm interested in purchasing a roll bar this winter and I'll wait until you guys announce the product.
