Not sure how hard they are to find but I saw a roll bar in a 72 K5 today at a salvage yard. Location is north of Seattle.

i would say get it, I paid 40 bucks for mine, and feel it was worth it. what kind of shape is the rest of the truck in? would you mind revealing the location of the truck so I could see if they have some of the parts I'm looking for?

I need a roll bar but I think shipping would be more than the cost of the roll bar.

Heck I could use a roll bar too.. Looks like I may have to break out the bender..

the factory roll bars, and 99% of the aftermarket bolt in roll bars are worthless in a rollover. they're mostly just for looks. just thought you guys should be aware of that.

There is a blazer in the "pull a part" wrecking yard in lynnwood. Not sure of the year but I did look at the windshield top and it's in good shape. Wasn't much left of it.
