How different are the na vs nc rollbar mounting points?

I have the opportunity to pick up an NC hard dog rollbar single hoop with only the front mounting points (aka its a single hoop bar with 2 double diagonals with no rearward bracing) for much, much cheaper than getting an na specific one shipped to canada.


Would it work with some modifications?

I would obviously get a local shop the add the rearward bracing and mounting points but im just wondering the differences.. If i can save almost 600$ going this route, i will.

 

Sounds like a waste of time and effort. You can buy NA/NB rollbars used all day long for less than $400. I got mine for $250 on craigslist.

 

Yeah. I wish.

Key word here guy: Canada.

**** like that doesn't come up for sale. If it did it would be minimum 600 and i havent seen one in about a year.

A new one shipped here from bethania will be 700+
Even from the states, shipping would be $300 on a used one.


So, no, not a waste of time and effort if i can save 5 or 600$.

 

The NC doesn't share a single thing with older miatas.

I really, really doubt there is a chance.

 

the amount of fab required you might as well build a custom one

 

Okay, thats what i wanted to know. Not familiar with NCs at all.

Thanks.

 

I'm not your guy, pal.

Seriously though, didn't see the "key word" Canada in your first post at all, you should put your location in your profile.

 

I'm not your pal, friend.


If you live anywhere within 100k of a border, there are companies on the US side that will receive and hold your stuff for like, 12 bucks. Then tour down and bring it across yourself. Saves a LOT of money.

 

I'm not your friend, buddy.

 

I can't find a used roll bar in the DFW area to save my life. Discouraging. Only one available on CL is a SS Hard Dog -- asking $800 (which is good for SS, I guess -- but I don't want SS).

I'll keep looking . . . . Getting close to just ordering a new one like everyone else.

 

I'm not your buddy, dude.

 

I paid much less than $800 new direct ship from Bethania. HDHCDDHT

Miata M2 Hard Core Hardtop Bar

In DFW check out Track Dog too.

I'm a little squeamish about buying used safety equipment.

 

I'm not your dude, guy.

 

yeah that is a complete waste of time.... just buy the right one for your car so you know 100% itll fit.

 

Where in the great white north do you live? There were plenty of places that would fab a roll bar for around $300 or so a few years ago around the GTA.

 

I'm not your guy, man.
