Hi Rusty. You are absolutely right. A wide front end is No more stable than a narrow one, but is gives one the sense of stability because it is out there on each side. Down here in the Ozarks, we have some hills you couldn't walk up let alone opperate a tractor with a loader, so it wouldn't matter what kind you had on the front, but like you said, it all goes back to the operater. I've had both, and like others have said, by the time the stops hit on the wide front, it is already too late, cause the back end is already off the ground, and the pucker factor is at about an 8. Common sense, enough weight on the back to offset the load on the front, and another dose of common sense will make all the difference. Even with a lot of weight on the back if a guy picks up a big load, then goes across the side of an incline, gravity is GOING to take over. Always operate up and down on an incline and turn at the top or bottom of said incline and one should be alright. Later, Harley
