Overview
The Poison Spyder 13-18-020 is a rear spreader bar kit for the 1981–1983 Jeep CJ5, the 1981–1986 Jeep CJ7 and the 1987–1995 Jeep Wrangler (YJ). It adds rear protection to the stock Jeep roll bar.
The kit consists of a rear spreader bar and two center stringers. The stringers tie the main hoop of the stock roll bar to the rear spreader. All components are made from 1.75-inch OD, .120 wall DOM tubing. Each piece is CNC laser notched and NC-bent, so the parts fit together without extra notching, fitting or grinding. Poison Spyder recommends using the bar with its Trail Cage Kit to build a complete full cage.
