ROPS fixings

Post by Nick »

Hi guys, as Im getting into doing more work with my major these days, Im bidding on a roll over bar on ebay. Has anyone got any pictures or advice on how they fix to the axle of the tractor?

I have seen a couple which are just bolted to the axle at shows etc, but that doesnt seem that strong to me somehow :?
Oh yay, look, another seized bolt! Lets get a hammer.....and some kano.....and some cider!

All that I have seen attache via at least the 2 thru bolts for the wings. Some also use the 2 inner bolt holes on the top of the axle.

Here is one using just the 2 wing bolts
