Re: seatbelts in rear seat of a CJ
Nope. for the CJ-5 go talk to a fab job to make a roll cage. Mike is
correct on the difference. Adding a true cage will give you much more
protection than a sport bar which is not really intended for a offroad type
roll over.

Re: seatbelts in rear seat of a CJ
Like Rusted mentions, nope.
If I was going to get a custom one made, I would make sure it would tie
into the frame. I did this when I went to a fiberglass body on my CJ7.
Basically I put a steel plate under the floor that I bolted the bar down
to and made sure it would reach to the frame mount so the front feet of
the bar are tagged to the mount. I plan on doing the rear legs the
same, but need new tails on my frame first. So I have 'half' a roll bar
sort of...
There are companies that make kits to tie the CJ7 bars to the frame like
I did. Not hard to fab up once you see how it is done though.
Here is a link to one company and it says it covers CJ5 frame tie ins
too.
