Roll Bar Estimate

I got an estimate on a 4 point roll bar for my RCSB today. Just to get the bars bent and installed inside the cab will be around $600-650, The two bars that go thru the sides and the main hoop with a crossbar. Does that sound like too much or is that a normal price?

I bought some C5 Z06 seats also, so Im gonna need to get some brackets fab'ed up as well. I'll do the 2 bars that go thru the windshield when i really really need it. Right now I kinda need the 4 point so I can put a harness since there are no seat belts.

who did you get the quote from? JamesB (in DFW) quoted me ~$800 for a 6pt and a few bars in the rear frame to stiffen things up a bit.

i got a 6 point installed, painted and a plastic rear window for $1000.

a 4 point doesn't meet track rules for quicker than 11:50's if that is your goal.

I know, Im only gonna do the 4 pt in the mean time. I dont plan on taking it to the track yet, still have to get some other things. Just wanna do the inside now so I can put the seats w/harness in and new carpet. Still wanna DD it a bit before I really ***** it out

Nah, from another friend who does them on old school cars etc.
So do you think $650 is a good price then? My friend said i can take to get the rear bars welded on later when Im ready.

What's up man. I got the racing seats off of ebay. They were really cheap, and they've held up extremely well. They are comfortable on long trips, they recline, and slide back and forth. I've seen a set of the racing seats that summit racing sells, and they are practically the same thing. We fabbed up some brackets for it. We used some thick steel tubing. drilled a few holes in it, and mounted the seat sliders to it. We also used the same holes/bolts the stock seats use. Very simple to do.
