also front wheels at widest stance is hard on the bearing since it changes the way the load is distributed and its in a way that it was not designed for.

How well does the YM1401D manage the blue tiller? Do you need to make more than one or two passes?
Nice to have a straight blade. I've been pushing 4 to 6 inches of snow today with a box blade. It takes more work and time. It's been an unusual winter down here this winter with a just over 12 inches this season. Normally it's one or two dustings that melt by noon.
BTW, since you do snow and tilling, it would be wise to have a ROPS on the YM1401D. For less than $1,000, it's the best insurance for your life and those who love you to having you around rather than a tractor accident. Hoye, Fredricks and other places have these. The Hoye and Fredricks version is foldable with the seatbelts too. As a plus, you can mount tractor lighting and/or tool boxes and/or SMV sign easily.

As long as I've killed whatever vegetation is there before I till it handle the tiller just fine and work the soil in one pass. Won't be breaking any speed records while doing it but it has the power to do it.
