Thanks, but James doesn't have one and hasn't found me anyone to get one made yet. He is swamped right now, so I thought I would ask around.

Without knowing what size you want, I can give you 2 suggestions.

1: Go to a machine shop and have them make you one. Find a shop that worlks with stainless or aluminum whichever you prefer.

2: A little weird, but you may want to check with a building supplier for those stainless grabrails they put in handicap bathrooms. They come in several sizes and lengths, and one just may work for you.


Hooked :-D

Thanks hooked, I've checked with 2 machine shops. Most don't deal in polished aluminum.

This grab rail must be around 32 inches wide and then extend about 24 inches above the console and then wrap over the top of the windshield.

I guess I should have been more specific. Does anyone know a company that fabricates this kind of stuff for a reasonable fee :-D
