Not to seem ignorant, but what front fenders? My 3320 doesn't have any!

It is a newer option offered to protect the cab tractors. No they do not move with the wheels. You cannot use the front fenders with a MMM either.

Then again I am one of the only crazy people to use a 3320 to MMM mow with

One problem I could see with the front fenders is that you would not be able to see your tires if you where working in a tight area, but it just depends what you are using it for. If you get them post pics and give us some feedback on how you like or dislike them.

Ah! That explains it. I didn't dare let myself even look at the cab tractors!

I did, however, think long and hard about the MMM with the 3320. Ultimately realized that on my terrain, ground clearance would be just enough of a problem to make it impractical for me. (Dealer helped with that decision, also. He recommended against it and showed me - in his lot - how the types of berms I've got could cause the MMM to drag/pinch.) I still think it's a phenomenal set-up for more even terrain!

I have front fender on my JD 3120 and they do not move with the turning of the front axle.I can see my front tires just fine. The font fenders are made to keep the mud, snow , or trash off the operation and not the tractor.One thing I do not like about the front fenders is that the bracket is on the axle so well that you would have to tear half the axle off if hit something with them.But get this John Deere puts to pins in to hold the front fenders on.Well they flop around like bird wings.So I took out the pins and replaces it with bolts and lock nuts. They are nice.I will be posting pictures soon of my winter set up.It will include the front fenders.
