Default *UPDATE w/ Pics* Help! Those with Barricade, N-Dure, Garage Pro Roof Racks

I scored a barricade rack of CL for really cheap, problem is that it's for a 2-door. I've been googling up a storm trying to find the difference between the 2 and 4 door JK kits and it seems it's all in the bars that span the roof lengthwise.

Can someone please measure from end to end, the length of the long tube that goes from front to back of the Jeep, off of their 4-door unlimited? Just connection to connection will do as I'll weld a collar in there. I know random request, but I'm going to have to source a new tube from a metal supply store. Thanks.

*****UPDATE*****
With the help of some awesome forum members, I got the measurement needed for the long rails. I went to Industrial Metal here in PHX, bought the metal needed. I cleaned thoroughly, primed and used spray-on bedliner that closely matched the original finish. I couple of holes drilled later and I have a rack with just over $340 in it. The rack is solid and I'm happy Click image for larger version

Hopefully someone can grab a measurement for you. If not, shoot me a PM and I'll make my way over to the warehouse and measure one for you!
