So, I bought a blue tractor! Ordered it about 5 weeks ago and it landed at the Dealers this past Friday. I'm told it will be delivered Thursday so I have booked off two days to get acquainted. Now I just need to build something to house it.

Get hot on a building (well not hot for 3 months yet in Ontario)
The provincial tractor inspector will surely levy a fine for leaving a tractor like that outside.

Congrats on the new machine. It’s exactly like mine, just a couple years newer.

Are the coming with the rubber pads on the backhoe stabilizers now?

3Lfarms, I was concerned about the missing pads too. I have seen posts (probably yours) where guys had to fab something. I was pleased when I got the photo showing some rubber. Does it look like these pads should do the trick?

Those pads will be a lot better than nothing, which is what mine came with.
I am also jealous of your front wheels. The new front wheels can be adjusted in and out just like the rears. Mine are solid and can only be swapped from side to side to give two settings.

The newb needs to ask why would I want to move my wheels in or out? What does that do for me?

Traditionally, it was to accommodate the width of row crops so you can set the wheels in the bottom of the furrows.
Lots of people also like to set them as wide as they will go to give better stability on side hills.
