4720 Rops Heighth?

[TCowner]

I am looking at a possible trade of my TC40DA on a JD 4720. My TC will clear my garage door opening if I drop the rear tire pressure just a bit. It's nice to work in the garage rather than in the pole shed.

If I purchase the 4720 it will be an open station tractor with a Curtis Cab. The cab on the TC requires the ROPS to stay upright as the rear window and frame clamps to it. I can't raise and lower it if I need access to the garage. I would suspect the Curtis cab for the JD would be somewhat similar.

I need to find out the exact heighth of the 4000 series tractors with the industrial tires. Anyone have a tape measure handy? JD's website doesn't list the heighth under the specs page.

The manual lists it as 2.5m or 97.2", but if you need to squeak under the garage door I don't know how much variation there is based on tire type/inflation or simple build variation. It's also possible that the cab rests on top of the ROPS, adding a little more height to the setup.
