Yes a tractor is more tippy with a narrow front. You see a lot more wide fronts in the hill country than you do on the flatlands because of his.
I put a wide front on my narrow front loader tractor and it really changed the way it moved. It changed the sideways movements from a kind of a pendulum type movement to more of a flat sideways movement. It just felt a lot more stable.
A while back I was carrying a long tree limb really high with the loader (I know, it's a no-no) and the left rear wheel came up.I got out of the seat and was ready to bail over the side but the wide front end hit the stop and the tractor sat there with one rear wheel off the ground. With a narrow front she would have gone over and probably sooner.
A narrow front sure is handy in tight spots, though.Jim
