JD 3005 full cage ROPS/FOPS build

[aarolar]

That's a good looking fit. Do you happen to know the measurements of your top? I want to put a top on my MX5100 but the ROPS is really wide and I cannot find one to cover the width of the framework.

Tell you when I get home in about 30 mins. I can tell you it's off a yamaha G3

It's 50x41

Here's my canopy. Off an old JD open station backhoe 410.

Course you need to have the canopy before you build your cage so they fit together.

Every time I see a picture of your M9540 I think; that is one bad a** looking tractor!
I'm sure you could care less about its looks but still :thumbsup:

Thanks Luke. I'm a bit OCD about looks. But function is primary. This tractor has served me well. Was working on some dead trees today. When a large limb landed on the canopy I was very glad I had it.

Should add, I have a canopy because James (K0UA) said I would appreciate it. He was right.

Impressive. How did you make your canopy? That is, assuming you made it and it's not factory. I can't tell.
