I don't know, the antiques at plowing comps don't have to have roll bars. Perhaps theres a rule about if you have a plow on the back that prevents roll over, I don't know.

Some euro companies just openly publish guidelines to build your own roll bar. Its a formula, if your tractor weighs this much and is this tall and use want this style, use x size metal with x thickness for sides and whatever for top.

Personally I know I would put off having a roll bar on one as long as possible if it wasn't law even though I know they can save your life pretty easy. I figure a law may smarten many of the procrastinating folk like me up.

This is coming from a guy who cuts safety guards off pto shafts first time they give me trouble...
