Default Pics of S&W Rollbar?

Anyone, I don't want to pay for a Wolfe and I have heard great things about S&W.

Need to know what it looks like installed. Thanks.

I tried this in Drag Tech forum and received no response. The only one I know of who has this bar is Matt Harlan (y2khawk) and it is the weld in kit not the new bolt in kit that is now available with the swing out bars.

S&W have been around for a long time. I've had some experience with their rollcages ('67 Camaro) and a backhalf kit for a Pro Street Camaro (the same Camaro). It was all quality stuff.

a buddy of mine has it in his 93 TA. It says it's all bent, but he had to re-bend everything. You get what you payfor. The door bars are straight, they are not low slung. The only pro over the Wolfe I seen when selecting my cage, is that the bars that connect to the trans tunnel, but if you had DD SFC's like I do I doubt it's needed. Also the Wolfe will come coated, where the S&W is all raw metal....

Yes considering the price difference you really cant fairly compare S&W weld in kit to the Wolfe. S&W does however have a new bolt in kit that comes with swing out door bars included and is powder coated for less than the equivilent Wolfe and it does also have the low slung door bars, it looks pretty good but I didnt want to bite untill I got a reccomendation from someone who has tried one. Honestly though lately I have been considering KTS since they are local and also do the install and have the option of through the floor sub connectors. Top Notch company.

KTS has really done an awesome job for me so far! I highly reccomend them!
