Default Grab handles

My jeep has one grab handle from the previous owner and I'm looking to get a couple more for when my jeep is lifted. I noticed that there are 2" and 3". What is that the measure of? what good is a 2" handle? Or it that the diameter of the bar it wraps around? Are there any brands to stay away from? I'm looking at the corbeau 3", they look pretty rugged or are they all pretty much the same?

They look like Master craft’s same price $39 for two, $59 for four (4 door JK). They are great. 3” is the diameter of the roll bar.

I have the Mastercraft also, and they're great. You can buy them in a 4 pack as well, I paid about $60 through Quadratec.

I haven't bought any yet, but I've had my eye on the raingler handles. At least in the pics they look to be a decent quality and the price is great.

where do you install the rear ones? I had rear handles and bolted them to the bolts in the speaker pod... works great. I didn't have room to wrap the roll bar like I did in the front.

Yes the 3" work fine with the JK rollbar, and the rears bolt up to the sound bar.
