Brackets for ROPS

[kennyd]

Every "mini" tractor I measured at the National Farm Machinery show was 2x2 or 2x3 except for the new gen2 JD 2025R, it had a 2-3/8" square ROPS. If yours is indeed 1-3/4 then yes it will still clamp on but you'll have a 1/8" gap on each side of the 2" dimension.

I have a GC2310 and plan on purchasing your ROPs Brackets.
Is it acceptable to mount 2 lights on each bracket?
Do the mounting bolts that come with light kits fit the bracket, or do you advise purchasing additional mounting bolts from you?

Below are the lights I am considering.

Yes, it's 1-3/4" wide... I suspect it's because the 2310 has a foldable ROPS. Don't know about the newer 2410/2610/1710/1715 backhoe models.

Sure, look at some of the pics on the website and the intro post I linked, some have even mounted 3.
Do the mounting bolts that come with light kits fit the bracket,
Yes, they are M8-1.25 thread, but they are probably to long, and since they have a hex (10mm) head they will not turn in the bracket they will be difficult to use.
or do you advise purchasing additional mounting bolts from you?
Well as stated they come with 2 each already so they may be enough for your project.

Those are fine, pretty much what we used on the underside of our display and in the one picture on the website.
