Early Bronco Roll Cages and Roll Bars
The last major safety item that should be at the top of any Bronco wish list is a roll cage. Some may argue that the factory steel top is sufficient and a roll cage isn't needed. But if you've ever seen what's left of that hard top after a severe roll you would see the light. the Bronco hard top will give some protection and might be OK is a slow roll on the trail, but it simply doesn't have the structural integrity of newer vehicles. Adding taller tires and a lift increases your center of gravity and your chances of flipping on the street or highway. A high speed flip or multiple roll down a hill with simply flatten or shear off a factory hard top.
Roll cages and bars of every style can be purchased several different ways. You can find a local ship to custom fabricate one specifically for your Bronco and your needs. You can order a fully welded cage from one of the major vendors that you just drop in and bolt up. You can order a kit that comes pre-fit, but unassembled and weld it together yourself. This of course assumes you trust your own life to your welding skills. A last option is to purchase the tools (chop saw and tubing bender) and fully fabricate and weld your own cage. Again, your welding and fabrication skills should be up to the task as your creation may need to save your life some day.
