I agree. I also liked your post about understanding the risks and using it on the street. I sense you understand you can't have it both ways without a risk in some aspect. I respectfully disagree with using it on the street primarily because of other people on the street, but you get it.

Maybe there is more space comparing the two platforms, I don't know. As far as a 6 point goes, no bar will interfere with any of the areas you mentioned aside from a door bar. I run removable bars, the most I'll suffer is going to be from the ankle biter as I never have the door bars in.

that is why I clarified the upper bar and not the lower door bar. I would likely use a 6pt in an occasional street car, knowing the back seats are 100% off limits to people. I understand we are talking about more than a 6 pt to pass NHRA tech at the power in question. to be in spec the cage bar is most likely closer than the one in your jeep. and a few inches may be the difference in both whether the head hits the bar, or how hard it hits it. If it needs a halo that is not even remotely comparable
I also don't know if the jeep comparo should let you be comfortable.
This is a good conversation.
