Enjoyed your video! I just ordered 3" steel spacers for my 1025R - hoping side to side is much more stable. We have rolling hills in our orchard (~1 acre apple orchard) and our barn sits on a rolling area, as well. My tires are filled and still had the roll feeling - so went to the next level with spacers! Appreciate your before and after shot of the stance - would be great to see a before and after clip of going across the two track in front of the garage! Best regards,
I am sure you have heard that liquid ballast in the tires helps lessen the possibility of rollover. I was wondering why you chose not to use that. And I think they have wheel spacers available for the front also. Do you have any plans to install them on the front?
After a year, are you satisfied with the 3 inch wheel spacer or do you regret not going wider? Im going to be ordering wheel spacers pretty soon and just trying to determine what size I should go with.
No I really do not regret not going wider. A friend of mine went with wider spacers an I am sure there is a lot of stability difference but it makes the rear of the tractor look a little odd. Probably better, but I don't like the look.
Never use Anti Seize on any lug bolt or lug nut per EVERY MANUFACTER in history Use Loctite Thredsealer. When torquing ALWAYS torque a bolt then the total OPPOSIT side, then back n forth. Do not torque in series next to each other Other then them 2 big issues, I liked your video, and nice tractor. PS Spacers do not change the center of gravity at all. They will stabilize your tractor better.

Stay safe.
Good video. I just bought the 3025e and already considering wheel spacers. We too don't have a level spot unless we made it. I think these will help.
Greg I know they will help. It’s like you can feel the difference. Stay safe and thanks so much for watching.
suggest ballasting the tires and installing wheel weights
Going to add the ballast.

John I reversed the front tires and this spread them about 3 inches each
Going to add it just haven’t done it yet. Thanks.

I try to do that then go all the way around. Thanks for watching.
Any issues with leaky seals yet? I have hilly property too and even with my tires ballasted, it gets tippy. I am debating on how wide to go.
Haven’t had any problems yet. Used 3 inch Bora spacers on rear tires.
I realize I'm kinda off topic but do anybody know a good website to stream new movies online ?
@Leonidas Preston I would suggest Flixzone. You can find it by googling =)
@August Ryker definitely, I've been using Flixzone for since march myself :D
@August Ryker thank you, I went there and it seems to work :) Appreciate it!!
Did the spacers come green?
Sorry for the late response Tony. No I painted them green. They can anodized black.
