Roll Bar Padding??

Busa196 · 04-10-2006, 04:24 PM

Where do you guys buy your roll bar padding? I purchased some from a 4wd drive part shop 30 miles from my house only to get home and find that the diameter was way too small......I figured all cages were the same diameter....shame on me.

Is there a place that sells different sizes? Is there an "average" size for aftermarket cages- I've got one, but don't know the name/type.

Thanks for any help-

Are you sure it's too small? It's a very snug fit. It has to be so they don't look all wrinkled when they're installed.

Yeah, it's not even close. It looks like I'd have to cut out 1/4 of another one in order to cover the entire bar?

I used the foam race car rollbar stuff with zip ties....works like a charm.

Jegs and Summit both carry the padding.

Anybody know the diameter of a stock CJ roll bar off hand? At work, can't get to the Jeep to check myself. Thanks!

At the sand dunes a guy was selling the noodles kids use in the swimming pool. He said they fit fine. I don't know I didn't see any being used. It might be a thought.
