Add homemade RPOS to old tractor.

Op, what tractor are you getting?

I did see a an accident report from a similar situation as yours where the owner bolted the ROPS to the top of the axle. The tractor flipped backward, the ROPS broke off the top portion of the axle where the ROPS was bolted and then the ROPS folder over pinning and killing the driver.

Must not have been a ford.. They are made for top to bottom bolts.

Before buying a tractor and mounting a ROPS, you might do well to compare the cost of the two to that of a newer tractor with a factory ROPS already mounted.
