The stuff you find on JC Whitney and the chrome big loop bars are mostly cosmetic. They might add to protection if your friends tip your truck over with you in it a -0- mph, but do nothing for high-speed crashes.
If you're just going for looks, google search "sport bar" or "light bar".
If you want protection, search for "roll cage".

Check out the materials used & design:
Roll Cage, Off Road, Mud Truck, Roll Cage Kits Produced by Roll Cage Components
Click on "More product pricing and details" here and find their catalog, which has as one opening line the disclaimer that these products are not designed for rollover protection. Nice looking stuff, but NOT rollover protection.

I was thinking of making my own and "stealing" one of their designs. I would tie mine into the frame for strength though. Not that my tires would ever point to the sky....
