Zach,

Here is some useful info on roll cages/bars that can help. Refer to sec

So what size steel plates are recommended?  1/4" by 6" square?  I have a
roll bar (installed by a previous owner) but it is just bolted to the body.
I'd rather not weld it to the frame, and I wonder if just adding a couple
sandwitch plates will be enough to protect me in a low speed (below 65mph)
rollover on the street.  I am currently running stock seatbelts w/shoulder
harnesses.  Opinions on getting a full race harness instead?
