After bending my front wire screens, my brother built this to keep it from happening again.

Nice, thanks for sharing. What do the black bars headed up and back go to, the canopy? If so, I'd like to see a wider angle shot.

They are part of the brush guards for the cab.

Nice setup. It must be great to have a creative brother handy for projects like this. :D

Dan_R_42 and m32825 It sure is handy having a brother like mine, both my brothers are pretty mechanically inclined, but only one can weld and fabricate. Both my sons are good welders, but when I suggested they do the M8540 the way the 5740 is set up, they just laughed. They are going to do the grill guard, but the rest of the guards are beyond their skill level.
