I see what you mean and understand what you are saying about the narrow front being more stable. The only problem with this is that at the time when you most need the stability at the extremes the NFE is less stable. You are only really worried about upsetting the tractor on a steep slope or when cornering at speed with the bucket up (or down if you're going too fast). Little will change with the NFE as the tractor starts to tip (sideways) and the tractor will pivot around where the inside or downhill tire meets the ground. Whereas with the WFE things will change as the tractor starts to tip. Initially the tractor will pivot around the front axle pivot. All the WFE's I've seen have a limited pivot so as the tractor tips the tip point will move to the inside or downhill end of the WFE. This is much further from the tractor and should make it more stable. This is just the way I see it anyway. Hope this helps. SAm in NS
