Remember that a wide front pivots on one point in the center, making it a narrow front too. I admit that when on a hill side the pivot point of a wide front is more under the center of garvity than the pivot point of a narrow, the pivot point of a narrow is at the ground. Other than this center of gravity issue on a hill side there isn't much difference in stability. A narrow front is better in close the woods or where things are tight and as someone said they take up less space in a shed. With a narrow front you need to pick 3 tracks for the wheels if you are in rough going instead of two with a wide front. A narrow front will ride better as when a wheel goes over a bump the center where the tractor sits on the axle only goes up or down 1/2 as much. Both seem to have advantages and disadvantages. I think the stability of a wide front is very over rated compared with a narrow though. You need to be carefull what you are doing with any tractor or machine.
