Look through the tractor talk archives. This has been discussed thoroughly, but probably not saved. There are aftermarket as well as MF ROPS probably available. Be prepared for sticker shock. A survivable ROPS is not easy to design and prove. Takes rolling the tractor over a few times to meet the SAE standard. Last I looked for a MF ROPS it was something like $1400. I bought a JD ROPS for my 4020 last year for $475. JD is more willing to SELL apparantly. I had good results from doing an internet search on ROPS, though the price data from U Wisc was old. Other university extension groups may also have data. Gerald
