After talking liabilty issues over in this project. Hes decided to go on with it.
Turning this fixed ROPs into a folder so it fits in his enclosed trailer.

The goal is to look as factory as possible.
Been unbolting hydralic arms to get to rops mounts.
If it doesnt fit make it.

Ill ad some up dates as they come.

This morning's early project turned into kinda night mare
Put a thermastat in my 40 to hopefully get it to run at 180 or 190 instead of 140. Someone had removed the thermastat.
Busted of the rusted housing bolts

Ended up drilling out and rethreading after trying to weld nuts on broken bolts. They were so rusted theyd become one with the castiron head
