Kubota Tractor Loader L3560 HST+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 3,700 pounds bare tractor, 5,400 pounds operating weight, 37 horsepower
I have a Kubota L3560 'Grand L'.

Orignal front tires are Titan R4/industrial 10-16.5 nhs "Trac Loader" tires.

After 1,300 engine hours right front tire is wearing tread on the inside rapidly.

Can tractor front ends be aligned like road vehicles to stop uneven wear?

Are there different alignment possabilities for a Kubota 'Grand L' versus a Kubota Standard L?

Thank you.

Other than adjust the toe in/toe out, there is no other adjustment on tractors, like camber, caster and whatever.

Because of the small turning radius of the tractors, they use a very positive camber on the front axle so they can turn in a very small space. This will wear the tires on a funny way.
