I'm pleased that you have never had a stability problem. I hope your luck continues. You will have a better chance of maintaining your record if you recognize the lower stability of the narrow front tractor. It would be even better if you didn't encourage others to wrongly believe the narrow front is as stable as a wide front. I certainly wouldn't try to convince anyone that a wide front couldn't be upset. I can't address the study by Iowa State University because I don't really know whether it was a flawed study or you simply read it wrong. I only have five narrow front tractors, but I do recognize that they are less stable than my fourteen wide front tractors. The only two times I was afraid of upsetting was with wide fronts. In both cases it was because spindles broke with elevated loads in loaders. One was a Ford and the other a Case. I've studied the question for years, and feel that I really do understand it. Safety is important to me. George Willer
