Bx 1870-1 ROPS bolt

[Amf232]

I was removing the nut off the ROPS bolt, the one on the bottom that goes into the fender. And one stripped out pretty badly. Does this bolt come out too or will I have to get a die and rethread what's left? Also what size is the bolt? I know it's metric I'll try to attach a picture of the mess I made Thanks T

Not sure but Im thinking it might screw out from underneath,, And if I may be so bold why did you take the ROPS off for in the first place?

Just checked the breakdown, part of bracket! It could be just welded in so grind of the old and do a match up at the hardware.

Not too bold. I have a Berco cab I was mocking up. It was on a different tractor and I was going to secure it using that spot on the ROPS. Suffice to say after that stripped bolt disaster and some creative curse words it did not happen this weekend. Any idea the size? M14?
