:welcome:
To TBN Harold. I sure hope that you didn't get hurt. Do you have pictures to post to help us not to go the same route? Were you able to get it right side up quickly? Have you tried starting it yet?

I don't believe the factory cab can be replaced without a major tear down of the tractor;I.E. you can't add a factory cab to an open station so you are looking at a major job probably done by a dealer.If your ROPS is bent that also will have to be replaced.
You may want to contact your insurance agent if you had insurance on the tractor;this could be very expensive.
Hope you weren't hurt.

I have attached photos below. I have not gotten it out yet or started it. 89m & 90 were put on in error. Please just ignore them. Thanks
Harold

Yes, the cab can be removed/replaced, the WSM gives details on this as it must be removed and the tractor split to replace seals etc., I have no idea of the cost, but I'm sure it's pretty high.

no insurance rops are bent and I got whiplash plus hurt my back but nothing broken it was a 20 ft fall I think, been told the highback seat saved me

I'm very sorry this happened to you, but it sure is a reminder to some of us who may be taking too many chances. We have a lot of drop-offs on our farms and I probably need to stay a bit further away from them.

Yep, that's what I mean, my Rhino fell in with me close to ten feet from the edge several years ago. We also had one give away on one of our roads and the only indication was a very small hole, we checked it with the ATV then on foot and had to dig out and replace a big section. I need to go out and check some places and some. I've just abandoned and won't go near.

I have a brand new outer roof for that tractor I'd sell.
