Jeff I'll bring it up anytime if you need it if you would let me hunt those whitetail's an afternoon or two! Lol

Looks like I'm gonna need to buy a longer trailer now also.

Guys take a look at my canopy,seems like it is positioned back to far compared to my last one... Its slid all the way forward on the brackets.

I agree that it is way out of position...

Do you think the brackets are on backwards? Seems like they should be facing forward and mounted on the operator's side of the ROPS. I bet some kid at the dealer put it together wrong. Hopefully he didn't "alter" it to make it fit. Lol.

I agree, in that position it will keep your 3 pt hitch drier than you.

Cut a piece of card board the shape of the support and put it on the front side of the ROPS. This will give you an idea of how the mount would be in relationship to the operator.

So do you think the mount is on the wrong side of the ROPS?

Looks pretty straight forward. Unbolt the brackets put the left one on the right, right on left, and mount them going forward through the same holes in the canopy frame they are in now.

Looks like it would move it forward 18-24". It was assembled and installed wrong IMO.

Nice looking tractor btw.
