I must admit it is a copy of a factory wide front. I built that front end myself, all but the center casting and spindles plus the arms that attach to the uprights and tie rods is from the original front end.

Had to make temporary jigs to hold the uprights in place and to get the holes exactly right, took a month of weekends to do but turned out well. Notice the center piece that bolts to the narrow front pedastal and attaches to the tie rods looks different than factory, that is also homemade. It is a piece of 1 1/4 inch solid shaft that I bent to the correct angle and made it one inch longer which allows the tractor to turn shorter.
