Looked at quite a number of tractors at different pulls and it appears everyone has a little different method to their madness. I copied a style similar to the diesel tractors using 2" x .095 DOM. Without weights, wheels & tires on the tractor, I think they look strange, like swimming pool hand rails, but do meet the 5" behind and 10" off the ground rule. As I recall, 720 models do not have two threaded holes on the inboard side of the axle housing so a C type clamp bracket would have to be used. Maybe someone will post a picture of an actual 720 wheelie bar.

I was wondering if it is possible to see how you mounted to the axle? Just the holes on the rear of axle tube or are there different areas as well?

Thanks Matt
 
Just the rear four 5/8"-11 holes were used for mounting on my 50 A. The square tubing pictured in another post on an actual 730 is sturdier and braced well on the front side. Less than 2" dia round tubing is borderline, I made another set out of 1-1/2" dia and they are too "flexible", I wouldn't recommend less than 2" dia round.
