I think I got my jato roll bar finished! YAY!!! Hopefully no more busted rear towers for me! I used 1/4" round bar to make it. Tried 5/16", but it proved too thick to get the bends right with the tools I have. I couldn't get proper clearance for the body to fit. Hopefully the 1/4" is stout enough to hold up. If not, I do have a buddy that has a welder... could add a gusset here and there.
And for any doubters, the body fits still in stock form:
I always get stuff done when I'm off for Christmas! Last year was a savage build up. The year before, a center->front aftershock skid plate. Hopefully next year will find me with a revo again to use my new receiver with!
