Re: roll cage door bars

i would think they would only fit one way. make sure they fit between the shoulder and elbow of the driver. this is more important to NHRA specs
what ever way fits and fits NHRA specs

Re: roll cage door bars

really its at your discretion, but as custom said in order to meet nhra the bar has to pass between your shoulder and elbow, take a look at my old thread and you can get an idea. i mounted mine a bit high, but im also 6'2 6'3 and i like how they fitted.

Re: roll cage door bars

Ive seen them installed two different ways. I would do some searching, there are some installed pics on here somewhere. Or on google.

But I would probably install them to NHRA specs and best fit. Or give S&W a call. They seem to be good people.
