Seriously, I would much rather deal with the cost and labor of changing to a wide-front end than have the last thing I experience in this life be the crushing weight of an narrow front-end tractor rolling over on me. Far to many people, including kids, have died over the years that way. My dad bought a Case 730 in 1966 that had a narrow front-end and within a month he sent it back to the dealership to have it changed to a wide-front end (with all of the "cost" and "labor"). I still have that tractor with it's wide-front end to this very day! And it wasn't just Farmall. Case, Allis-Chalmers, Ford and others had narrow front-end models, although to be fair, most offered wide front-end as an option. The narrow front-end farm tractor was one of the most dangerous ideas to come along in the past 100 years. Thank God manufactures wised up after about 1980 and quit making those damn dangerous narrow front-end tractors!
