So if I reverse the wheels on a 1000 (or 128 etc...) will the wider front stance make the tractor more stable on hills/turns???
I know it will look cool!!
Would there be any problem other than additional stress on the front axle??
Or I could get a set of NF wheels.

The pict shows one swapped, one not, that is the way I got her!!

All I know was it made a huge difference on my little mower!!
Before widening the stance, I could not turn hard @ full speed because it would want to tip over, and tended to be "scary" on my side embankments (not that I recommend someone run a mower @ full speed and turn) it was just for trial purposes)
After the stance was altered, it is rock solid. (It will take more effort to turn though)
I cannot speak for someone else’s experiences.
What I do know is on my larger Ag tractors a wide front end is much more stable than a narrow front.
I converted 3 of them to wide fronts just for that reason as I haven’t used a front mounted 4 row cultivator in years, necessitating a narrow front.
