I've been looking for a ROPS for my 185. I think I found one. It appears to be taken  off a 7000 series, but looks just like one for 100 series. What does the jury think?

This looks like the same one on a 185

| The axle mounting areas are different between the 180, 185's and the 7000 series on these. You might be able to make them work with some modifications, but I wouldn't count on it in a rollover though. |

that tractor it came off of is a 7000, not a 7010 on up. It may bolt on like a 190, or 200. at least a little closer to the 180/185 .

I'm just wondering if the owner of that 7000 took that ROPS off another A/C tractor. I have only seen 7000 series with either an open station or a ROPS similar to the factory cab. Does anyone have a picture of the ROPS mount to the axel on a 185/180. I can make it work if the width is the same. Ironically the guy I'm buying said it bolted right on a JD 4020. I've been looking for some time and they are hard to find. Tim |

Here is a ROPS off a 185, it will bolt onto a D17 IV w/factory 3-point, 17X, 18X.
The large plate bolts under the trans/diff in place of snap-coupler system, slotted long uprights go over axle and down to meet angled attaching parts.

the bigger tractors 7010 and up did use the 4 rear cab bars for a ROPS. but a 7000 tractor did use the 2 post like the pic.

| Thanks guys, It is definitely different, I was able to blow up the picture and it is set up for a square axle. Joe any chance your ROPS is for sale? I may try to fabricate the other to fit. Thanks for all your help. |
