Total width of rear wheel base with industrial tires?

Hi All,
I'm looking to see how wide the L2501 with the industrial tires is. I may need to modify the width of my barn stall, but depends on total width. Thanks!

I have a brand new L2501 (51 hours) with R4 Industrial tires I bought last year. I made this measurement months ago. Im not at home right now but Im pretty sure its right at 5 foot on the button from the outside edge of each tire. If youre looking at this for entry/exit door then I would say 100% you need to be over 60 inches wide to fit it. I will measure it again when I go home in about 2 hours and give you a 100% exact measurement.

Looks like that didn't happen. Hope everything is alright on your end.

I believe mine is very similar to the 2501, with R4s its about 55” wide, but I believe the standard loader bucket is 66” now.

very sorry! I completely forgot to take the measurement. I did it yesterday though and it is right at 60" on the dot as I thought I remembered. That is from the outside wall of the rear tire to the outside wall of the other rear tier. So, you need at Minimum 61" or so of opening to fit the tractor. Fordtech is right that the bucket is a few inches wider than the tractor. The 55" wide measurement however is too narrow for the 2501 with R4's.
