Happy with my Kubota L3901 but less happy with Kubota. Have asked KubotaUSA several questions. The last question was about wheel spacers, i.e., what size would be too large for the tractor to handle (2", 3", 4", 5", ...). This forum provides great info!! Kubota refuses to answer the...

Thanks !! Exactly the answer I was looking for.

I don't have a MMM, but it is a good point, as is the tire ballast comment. Thanks. My main focus is making sure I'm not going to break something expensive by adding the spacers (axles, bearings, castings, frame, etc).

Thanks!

Thanks for the comment! Would you mind letting me know about how many hours you have on the 3.5" spacers? Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion. I have one piece rims so spacers are the only answer (other than loading tires which have already done). Not sure what my maximum spacers would be without messing up reliability. From looking at how much can be added to width by changing wheels (on those where it is...

Yep, mine came with R4's and have no adjustment.

Not ag tires. My L3901 has one piece rims that do not allow for changing width. Bummer. It's either spacers, or nothing. Just worried about breaking something with 3.5" spacers (although I have seen posts where some people actually put 6 on both sides !)

My land has some slopes and hills that I just avoid. To add stability am considering adding a Bora 3.5" wheel spacer to each side of rear. Anyone tried spacers? If so, how well did they work and did they cause any maintenance issues. Thanks.

Did you get the wheel spacers? If so, what size and how did they work out? Thanks.

It's been about 6 years. Any reliability problems because of the spacers? Thanks.
