If you want to be CERTAIN regarding garage door clearance, you will need to measure.

FWIW, I would certainly not add a turbo to any engine or tractor not designed for such, regardless of the quality or completeness of the package.
Hi there and thanks for that info. My l2501hst having the 15x19.5 rear tires measures from the floor to the top of the rops bent is 72 in. My garage height clearance is 79 in. That's why I was asking about the R14 the series tires of which only two are offered on the website for this l3902hst tractor. One of them has 15x19.5 and the other ones have the 43x16.00-20. I would have rather had the wider 43's but somebody said they were taller then the other series, the 8696/7. I'm much rather would have had the 43s because they are wider also then the other option of the 8696/7. Thoughts?

Hopefully, you guys can help me with some good advice regarding upgrading.
Presently, I'm on a four-acre residential wooded lot, using my Kubota L2501 which includes the BH-77 backhoe.
I'm looking to upgrade to the Kubota L3902hst
BUILD:
L3902hst- 4WD TRACTOR W/FOLDABLE ROPS
FRONT 15-19.5 R4 Trac
REAR 17.5L-24R4 Firestone All Traction Utility
KUBOTA ADD-ON FRONT END LOADER - HEAVY DUTY FOR L3902hst
BUCKET LEVEL INDICATOR
Quick Attach 66" BUCKET.

I'm looking to sell my starter tractor with the backhoe which has only 180 hours on it.
Maintenance is up to date.
Here is a quick video, pardon the dirt on the tractor. The BH77 is cleaned.
What should I buy the new one for and what's the fair price for the old combo?
Is the 2501 available? The video is down.

Tractorhouse.com is a good place to start researching for prices of used equipment but be advised that prices therein are asking prices and not considered representative of selling prices.

Insufficient information for much guidance regarding new 4701 replacement.
When you get a chance will you read my original post I made some edits thanks for your attention
