Sorry!!! Wrong forum.


Just bought a new 1635. Discussed it with the dealer and still not sure so I thought I'd get the answer from the experts here. I'm going to be doing mostly finish mower and bush hog work with a little road upkeep and snow removal. There are a few slopes I'm going to be mowing on sideways. My question: If I move the rear wheels and tires out wider will I notice any increase in stability enough to justify it. The dealer didn't think it would really help much considering what I'd be doing. The tires are filled and there is a FEL. Thanks for any advice. Here's a couple of pictures the way it sits right now. Also, are there any reasons NOT to widen it bit. My box blade, FEL, and mowers are all 72" wide if that matters any.
