Yeah, I agree. they always used to be called rollbars, then they started being called light bars, probably for liability. But lots of people still refer to them as rollbars I think. I've seen them screwed to the bed floor with sheetmetal screws. I saw a video years ago of a guy four wheeling with people standing in the bed holding on to the "rollbar". Guy hits a big bump and the people ripped the rollbar right out of the floor and fell out the back of the truck.
I did consider putting a double single in mine, just to keep with the period of the truck, but I ended up getting another backrack instead. Needed someplace to mount my Edge lightbar.
Love the Suburban above, especially the Trans Am style hoodscoop, never seen one like that. I don't see any rollbar in it though, is it inside? ;> ;>
