I have good pictures of this but what I can't see in the pictures is weather or not the roll bar tube goes all the way to the frame (inside the slip tube on the bracket that bolts to the frame.) I would think that you would want the end of the support tube 'ON' the frame instaead of being held up above it by a single bolt that would shear easily in the event of a roll over that would put serious weight on the roll bar.

But that is the only way I can see to get the bar in there........

I went with 1 3/4" because I thought the 1 1/2 looked too skinny, gromets were a PITA to find for 1 3/4!
