Removing ROPS 3600 need brackets

Ended up buying a 3600 with ROPS / canopy, problem is I need to remove it so it will fit in my shop. Besides that, this is going to be my mowing tractor and the ROPS will be a big problem around trees.

When I remove it I'm going to need the brackets that go under the axel with the sway bar pins that also hold the fenders.
Any chance anyone has a parts tractor or maybe removed the brackets for a loader or???

Email is open, let me know cost plus shipping.
Thanks
 
Never mind, I needed the stabilizer bars anyway so ordered the whole kit off Amazon. They had the best price.
 
In NE Oklahoma, Will probably put it on Craigslist when I get it off. Would be a real bear to ship, it's more or less one piece.
 
Why not cut the rops off at a suitable height, add an insert bar to the bottom piece, weld it in... then set the top half back on and drill it. Make sure it's got 8-12" insertion into both the top and bottom pieces. Then you can remove the top side as necessary and still have rops when you need them. And before anyone starts the lecture about modifying them.... bear in mind that it's more than he's got given his present course of action.

NCMichael, I'm in Michigan, but I have ROPS for a 3000 if you're
ever up this way. I agree, shipping would be out of the question.
It's still on the tractor, so I'm confident it's all there.

Probably a good idea but knowing me I would never put the top part back on.

So what is the ROPS worth. I'm thinking $300, From what I could find on the net looks like new universals are running about $600.
 

Either one of you guys with the ROPS have a picture? I'm in michigan and am looking at one to build a canopy off of, I have a loader though so I'm not sure what interchanges
 
Well... if nothing else you'd still have the base mounts you need. Just fill the tube in so it doesn't fill with water and rot...

Hope this works, one is overexposed but shows the overhead structure pretty well.

Mine doesn't have a canopy on it, but I imagine one could be added.
Mounts about the same as the other one pictured.

Man, michigan just tears everything up haha. How much are you asking Royse?

Bob reeves, up here I'd imagine that rops would be closer to 6-700 to some folks being that clean.
 
Are you taking it off or me? LOL
Shoot me an email and I'll send you my phone number.
It will not be anywhere near $600
I do have a good local sandblaster if needed too.

Listed it on Tulsa CL yesterday for $300.00, hopefully it will sell and pay for a couple items I need for the tractor like a new seat.

Looks like the road salt up north doesn't limit itself to cars. Am sure happy we don't have to deal with the rust issues you guys have to.

Ain't that the truth! This tractor was a golf course mower.
I'm guessing it also saw duty cleaning parking lots.
