First,Thanks to everyone for their information and input...This is a great site!!!! Next question do I get Folding or Rigid ROPS. And is a 6' RB a little too much blade.Some say 5' RB is better for this size tractor???

Folding ROPS are great, especially if you need to put it in areas with lower clearance. If that isn't an issue for you I guess it wouldn't matter. My CUT is 24HP and around 50" wide, I have a 5' rear blade and for most applications I sure wish it was 6'.

Get the folding ROPS, period. Even if you don't need it for storing your tractor now, down the road it might become necessary. As for the RB, the 5 foot size is about right for your hp if you are using it on dirt. If you will use it mostly on snow, go for the 6 foot.
