Front wheel options
 
Hi everyone, have a cub 107 and want to change out the skinny front wheels. Anyone know what I need? Does it need longer spindles etc. ? Thanks in advance

You just need a set of wide NF front wheels. Spindles are the same.

if you were closer i would swap ya! I would rather have narrow tires for my 104 with front blade. Wide tires seem to catch on edges of dirt piles i have been pushing around and ripping the wheel out of my hands.

There's an old farmer adage of making sure your thumbs are on the outside of the steering wheel.

I like the narrow tires better.. They steer easier and follow the rows better in the garden..

I agree about the old farmer saying.. keep your thumbs out of the way!!:beerchug::beerchug:

I have quite a bit of play in my column so if I hit something and it turns tires opposite direction i am turning and all that play catches up at same time it just surprise ya. Doesn't literally rip wheel out of my hands but its a little rough on old wrist injury from when i was younger and thought it would be a good idea to ride on roof of dodge caravan. Planning on getting column(gear box) fixed but i got surprised with 8-10 wheel dump truck loads of sod and dirt for fill in my yard that had to be moved.
