Was curious if anyone knows of an aftermarket source for folding ROPs for older tractors? Specifically,I am looking for a folding ROPS solution for the JD 70-series tractors. Thanks in advance. Regards Mark.

---I have not seen any after 8-9 years of owning a 970. I have 13.6-24 r-1 tires on the back and have cleared 3 out of 3 standard garage doors by .5 inch.

---I doubt any company would want to take on liability issues that come with defeating such an important safety feature.

---I hot wired my seat switch so I can run the PTO powered backhoe but have decided to put in a switch at that connection to restore the safety feature when hoe is not attached because ya never know!

---If that feature is needed, I think your best bet is to find a confident welder and have it fabricated.
