ID This Hard Dog Please!
I'm considering buying a gently-used Hard Dog roll bar for a decent price, but can't really tell what model it is. It looks like it's full height with a single diagonal (i.e., not an Ace). The unusual thing is that the diagonal goes across the main hoop rather than to a rear brace. Obviously, this would inhibit passenger seat recline, but I don't really care about that.
Can anyone ID this bar? Any pros/cons to watch out for?

My eyes tell me its a Hard dog M2 single diagonal. Can't tell whether it is a Hard Core or not, that would take a tape measure, but if it has the under car mounting plates, you are a set of new hardware away from a good bar. I'm not a fan of the single diagonal, but that is a visibility thing.

I'd call up Hard Dog and see if they ever had a design with the diagonal only on the main hoop. Kinda makes sense for rigidity, but what would I know. I guess going from the main hoop to one of the back braces would be more triangular for both upside down sideways force, and upside down forward forces.
