Do you mean a Light Bar or a Roof Rack? If you want a Roof Rack or Roof Basket look into Defender brand, you can add on a light bar to it as well. But if you want a light bar look for CARR or KC.

CARR Truck and SUV Light Bars


Defender Series Roof Rack

KC Hilites

Its called a roll bar.

There are a few different companies that make them. I think Grizzly is one of them.

NOT a roll bar, just called a roll bar. You do not want to rely on that sheetmetal in a roll over.

the one i got is a grizzly but are not made anymore. theyre also called bed bars, i know some place make em and you might be able to make one fit your truck, like fx4wannabe said, its not really a ROLL bar, bc this stuff is this sheet metal, its not gonna protect anything, search for bed bars though see what you come up with.
