I ordered from Bro-Tec. The shipping was $30. They are 4” spacers. I thought that was fair. One surprise was that Bro-Tec is a Canadian company.

So that savings took about $23 off the shipping cost compared to if I had bought something here in the USA. I don’t have any problems supporting our northern neighbors. When I was growing up, we always thought of Canada as the 51st state!
Net conclusion is that the tractor does feel a bit more stable. Actually the 8 inch increase on the rear track is just under a 20% increase, which should add significantly to the stability.
Before and after shots:
Something was wrong with the images and I tried to fix what I perceived is being wrong and screwed up the images totally so I’m going to post them separately in the following post
