Has anyone seen any ways to widen a L3700? Even just 4 -6 inches would be a help. Here in WV everything is a hill and sometimes things get a bit tippy so I would love to make this machine a bit wider? I have not reversed my rims and was wondering if it is a good option?
Thanks

Yes, mainly the rear but the front would not hurt to be a bit wider. I have R4's all around on the machine.
Thanks

kubota did (does?) sell spacers but they were only 1"... I forget the price, a few TBN'ers did buy them and they were pricey (?$290?).

Widening the front is Not a good thing for your front axles & hub assemblies, you don't want them Any wider.... It will not do anything for stability(front axle assembly is a pivot) and it only increases the load on the axle stubs/hubs... KennyV
