I don't think you would want to go any smaller than 2x4 rectangular tubing. I would probably use 3x5 if I was doing it. It needs to be mounted on the axle housings to do you any good.
If the PTO linkage is a problem, maybe you can re-design the linkage to clear the rops post.

If you are spending the time and money to build a rops, then obviously you have half a brain. Don't settle for something half-assed that could get you killed.

Moral of story - it's better to over-build than under-build.
