Kubota L3901 modifications part 5 - How to install Bro-tek wheel spacers

[@jameskennerly9748]

Thank you Sir! You are the only one that I have found that has put spacers on the front. I have a L4701. I have widen the rear tires. Be thinking of doing the front wheels.

All of your video's on Kubota tractor mod's are of great interest to me and many others. I am planning on buying an L2501 in the near future (my first real tractor). Beginners really appreciate the attention to detail and the thorough explanations. The Kubota compact tractor "nation" is hungry for all the helpful info that is out there. Keep it up! Checking the Bro-tek site shows most of the spacer widths are out of stock, I hope they will have some inventory soon. Best of luck to you. I'll be tuning in.

Thanks a lot. Join the Kubota L series owner group on Facebook as well as the Everything Attachments group. You'll find lots of great info on there. A friend of mine has a 2501 and they are great machines. I am receiving about 10 new attachments in july, and have recently purchased a firewood processor, and sawmill coming soon. I'll have lots of good content coming soon.

Love your pooch helper in the midst of it all 😊 I just ordered some 1.5'' wheel spacers for my TYM to help the snowchains clear the cab mount/fenders. Good video.

I put 2” BroTek spacers on my L225…great improvement in stability on my hills. Highly recommend Bro-Tek. Took a little longer coming to the US.

Great video! I love my 6" wider rear end. Should be that way from factory. Makes such a difference. Love when the beautiful pup checks the lug nut. I did a video on this with my l2501 about a year ago and haven't regretted a thing. I'm jealous about your r14 tires. Wish they were an option when I got mine. I'm in the middle of upgrading everything to hydraulic control in the rear. Great vid!

[@jonathanlemire2797]

Thanks for the comment. You're right those R14s are great. As soon as i get a new F250, I'll load the rear tires. It would be too heavy for my truck while towing my big equipment trailer. It should help feel more stable. A friend of mine just install the rear remote kit from Summit, I'll order one soon to make a hydraulic thumb for the backhoe.

Could have swapped the front tires around and added offset also. They are dished in on this video only thing valve stems would be on inside which is better anyway but most complain because takes more time to reach them but less likely to rip valve stem out on inside than outside

Hello Jonathan. I just added fluid to the rear tires on our B2601 and went for a test drive yesterday. There was a remarkable difference between the fluid filled, and non fluid filled feel to the tractor. I am also planning on wheel spacers, still on the fence about width, and rear or front and rear. Would love to hear your thoughts, now that you have had them for awhile. We are near Peggy's Cove, so would like to go Bro-Tek as well. Thanks for this very informative video, Ben.

I got my tires filled this past fall and also noticed a major difference, especially when using the tractor at my woodlot. I went with 3" spacers in the rear. I did mine in the front 1.5" but they don't increase stability so i would save that money if i were you. I think that you will be fine with anything between 2 and 3".

@@jonathanlemire2797 thanks Jonathan, for the added information. I'll follow your advice, Ben

[@rnel2557]

Thanks for sharing!

[@jonathanlemire2797]

No worries!

[@donaldstrishock3923]

Hope the axles dont "snap-off". Better take them off before servicing or warrenty work at a Kubota dealership ( have a Kubota also) for this None-approved Kubota modification. My 36 hp 2016 Massey-Ferguson HAS Adjustable "offset" wheels with R-4 tires from the factory,as does the Like size Yanmar tractors-- they are "Built" to "Take It":= NO PROBLEMS, Quality Built right IN. Thank you Sir for the vidio and happy safe tractoring. Best wishes with all your endeavours.

Nice looking wheel spacers i think mine are steel they where on it with the tire chains when i got it

[@jonathanlemire2797]

I think Bro-tek also makes them out of steel too, they offer both. I was glad to see a company in NB machines them and be able to support a company from the maritimes.

[@jsimpson8018]

After running the aluminum spacers for a year, what are your impressions?

[@jonathanlemire2797]

I don't think the fronts make a difference. But the rear feels a lot more stable. I also had the rear tires filled and this made a huge difference as well.
