Based on the
immense popularity and extensive engineering of our 4-point, Watson
Racing is excited to present this new bolt-in 6-Point Roll Bar for S197
Mustangs!
This is quite simply the finest 6-point Mustang bar on the market.
Key features include:
• Removable door bars with a serious
joint. We’re not fans of the single quick-release pins found in most
removable door bars. How safe and strong can that really be? We used the
same precision machined joints found at the rear of our bar, for exact
fit and super-high strength. The mounting plates for the feet of the door bars stay mounted in the car. Simply unbolt and remove the door bar from inside; re-installation is a snap.
• Quick-In and Quick-Out design. Perfect for those of you who are
part-time racers and don’t want a full-time roll bar. Like the door
bars, our uniquely-engineered bolt-in mounting system stays hidden and
mounted in the car. Unbolt the Roll Bar from INSIDE your car for quick
removal and re-installation. Removing the door bars is easy, and leaves
no stub sticking up through the floor.
• Mounts to the FACTORY corner gussets. Other roll bars bolt to
either the weak sheet metal floor behind the front seats (dangerous!) or
replace the factory corner gussets with their own design. Why replace
what Ford has already engineered and crash-tested? This is a critical
strength point in your Mustang, and we did not want to replace it. The
Watson Racing 6-Point bar bolts to this factory-designed gusset for
maximum safety.
• Minimal trim panel modification. With our 6-Point Roll Bars
quick-in, quick-out design, you don’t have to cut your trim panels AT
ALL if you don’t want to. If you’d rather keep the trim panels and Roll
Bar permanently mounted in the car, the modifications required to the
trim panels are minimal. No cutting your trim panels in half with our
bar!
• Minimal-bend design. Bends in tubes reduce a its effectiveness and
safety. We kept the bends to a minimum in order to maximize safety.
Where bends are required, we use a CNC precision mandrel bending process
to maintain strength.
• Works with the Ford Racing / Boss Laguna Seca X-Brace, and Watson Racing Seat Delete Carpet Kit! The Watson 4-point carpet kit
pops right in with the new 6-point. You can also modify our carpet kit
to work with the X-brace, or modify your Ford Racing/Laguna seat delete
panels to work with the Watson Roll Bar. No modifications are needed to
the X-Brace or Roll Bar to work together!
• We sweat the details: 100-percent TIG-welded 1.625-in .083-in
wall CHROMOLY. 100-percent powder coated. Shoulder harness retention
loops, standard. Welded/fixed harness bar and diagonal bar, standard.
Precision-machined tube joints for high strength on rear support tubes
& door bars- no through-bolting here, and notice the plug-welds!
Zinc-plated heavy M10 metric fasteners included.
• Full seat travel. Since the Watson Roll Bar mounts on top of the
factory corner gussets (next to rear seat bottom cushion), the front
seats are free to slide all the way back and maintain a comfortable
driving position.
