Photo of ROPS on a kub B7100?

[Blagadan]

Hi guys, this is my first post so I'll say "Hi!" first and foremost!!!

If any of you guys has a Kubota B7100 that has a ROPS fitted I sure would appreciate a photo of the back of the tractor. Primarily a close up on where the ROPS is attached to the tractor. Also if you have a measurement from ground level to the top of the crossbar on the ROPS would be great, thanks.

Welcome to TBN. I hope that you find all the info that you need. You may get more success posting in the kubota forum. I did check so maybe you already did. Somebody is bound to be able to provide that for you.

Are planning on making a ROPS for yours? Be very careful. I would think that you should be able to buy a ROPS for that from Kubota. It is the same as a 7001 is it not?

Here is a link to the Kubota safety program to retrofit ROPS. Regular price is $198. The program discounts that to $148. US only my dealer tells me. $388-$700 are the prices I've been quoted in Canada.
I'd like to see the photo of the back of a B7100 with ROPS also. I want to get one and I'd like to get an idea of how it's going to work out with the rear remotes I installed.

On page 3 of this thread I asked the same question and got some pics:

I do not know for sure if that is the exact ROPs you get if you buy one through Kubota. I have the backhoe for mine and the ROPS goes where your legs need to go so I won't be adding one to my tractor.

Thanks, pics look good. I'll have to redo my bracket for the remotes, hmmmm....

Wonder if it would work to have a friend buy a ROPS in the US and ship it to you in Canada?

Thanks for the offer rocks but going across and getting it myself is only a one hour detour on my way to my country property. I did a test run for an oxygen sensor last summer and saved $114.00 There was no duty to be paid just taxes.
