Great job. Good to see someone overcome the 'taboo' of ROPS modifications. How do you sleep at night? Many people here would toss and turn forever feeling like they had just killed their spouse and be afraid they're going to get caught.
I solved the ROPS vs door problem by buying a tractor that fit thru my 7 foot opening. I brought a tape measure to every dealer and measured everything... height, width , length with/without implements, and attachments.
I have 1/2 inch height to spare going thru my doors.
Again, great job.
:thumbsup:
Did the same. The first thing I did with my new tractor (my most expensive vehicle purchase ever) was to break out the saws-all and cut 6"+ of the exhaust pipe off.
" 1/2" height to spare"--pffft, you call that close! The exhaust flapper I added to the cut off pipe scrapes a gouge in the door header.
(Though, a year later I built a barn with 10'+ door, so it's not an issue.)
