P700 Need phot0 of 700-4 ROPS attachment

[Gator]

Hey guys
I am installing a 700-4 ROPS on my 700-2.
In the back, where the ROPS attaches to the frame, there are a couple of diagonal braces. These diagonal braces do not quite meet the frame so I am wondering if I have a slight misalignment or there should be a bushing.

I need a photo that clearly shows how that diagonal brace is connected.

Every shot I have of the rear of my 700.
I don’t remember a bushing, but I think there was a raised “bung”

There does seem to be something there. Thanks man. I'll dig deeper.

Looks like I should have read the entire question before trying to answer. Was on break at work and was short on time.

You mean the rear... I'm home I will take a walk out snap a few

Haha The rear of course..."Duh"
Hope these help

Thanks @swsebek Those help, and I do see something that looks like a bushing.

I'm not sure @Tflynn .
I'm a few bolts away from having the 700-4 ROPS on my 700-2.
Now that I have it, I can modify it and adapt it any way I want.
I'm just not sure what I want yet.

BTW: I might have the only 700-2 with the 700-4 ROPS.

Here ya go gator. I know I sent these to you in text but maybe this can help other people down the road.

That is the million dollar shot. I was able to cut some tubing and weld in the spacers shown in this picture.

The 700-2 does not have the welded stand offs.

I got the ROPS installed. Now I want to modify it. I have too much going on right now. It'll have to wait.

Side Note: I got a blood nose when the drill hung and I wasn't holding on tight enough.

Where did you fing the 700-4 ROPS? I have been looking around and haven’t found any. I am new to the honda pioneer world. I recently purchased a 700-2 deluxe and love it! I am amazed at what these machines can do.

Rooster (on this forum) made his own and sold the OEM.
You don't want to buy a new one. You will just have to keep checking e-bay and on the forum.
They are hard to come by.

Good luck.
