Dude I went with the mastercraft 3" grabhandles. They are really heavy duty. Def worth the extra money. I wouldnt get the ones youre looking and Ill tell you why. When getting in and out of my JK the handles already hit my head, if you got those they would be even more in your face. They are way too big.
Get what you want ...and NO MY HEAD ISNT that BIG!! Hope this helps.

Get the mastercraft. One of my buddies is in a wheelchair and has used the Mastercraft handles to lift himself in and out of my Jeep with no problem. Full body weight (well, 150lbs or so) and they have not even needed tightened.

I put Mastercraft grab handles in the front of the Jeep and liked them so much I got a second pair for the back. When getting in one applies a lot of weight on them and I feel I want something that won't let go or bunch up as a result. The idea of laying on my back on the ground or on rocks could be serious.

David at Northridge has a nice setup of Mastercraft front and rear handles that is like $60 I think. Spend $40 more on something else and you will get free shipping. You would be losing money if you don't take advantage of that!

I kept my 3" Mastercrafts from my TJ and am using them for the front of my JK Unlimited. I bought a pair of the Rugged Ridge (handles only, no straps) that look identical to the Mastercrafts for the rear and attached them to the existing bolts of the soundbar. It looks great and matches the front. Also, they are much more centered for the rear seat. If I would have gone with the handles with straps for the rear, the handles would have been too far to the rear of the roll bar and not as easily accessible for passengers.

Mastercrafts are the way to go!
