sorry i cant answer your question with authority (i have no experience with
a yj and as soon as i tell you something itll be wrong) but strictly as an
fyi, the yj/tj style sport bar is "safer" for rear passengers in making it
possible for them to have shoulder belts. if rear passengers arent a
factor, i also prefer the looks of the cj sport bar but its purely asthetic.

Re: CJ and YJ roll bar
Apples and oranges. The Civilian Jeeps I'm aware of have a flat top
of the fender well, which supports a roll bar, the YJ doesn't.

Re: CJ and YJ roll bar
I believe the rollbar from a CJ-7 (1979 - 1986) is the same as the one of a
YJ (1987 - 1991) with exception of the additional bar that YJs have from the
rollbar to the windshield.

Re: CJ and YJ roll bar
They aren't 'roll' bars, they are 'sport' bars and are bolted to the tub
only.
'Roll' bars ar tied into the frame.
And yes, a CJ bar will bolt into a YJ.

And definitely not welded to the tub, although many a YJ has their Torx-head
rollbar bolts so impossibly rusted removal can be the equivalent of a weld
;).
