Anyone Here Ever Dealt With Bro-tek?

[RLinNH]

I am getting ready to pull the trigger on some 2" Spacers for my 2018 B2650. I would really like to stick with a Kubota kit, but that kit is only 1 3/8" per axle. I found this 2" kit via a google search. Anyone ever dealt with Bro-tek in the past? Are they a reputable company?

Yes, I ordered a set of spacers back in 2021 from them. The order shipped quickly and when there was a thread problem with one of the parts, Richard there at Bro-Tek sent out a replacement immediately.

I have bought several things from Richard. Always a quick turnaround and superior product. As they say, “just do it”

Pulling the proverbial trigger today. thanks for the input!

I put their 2.5" spacers on my lx2610 and am very happy with them. The rear wheels are just within the width of the bucket, They sent all of the necessary hardware with the spacers.

Hopefully you checked about MMM clearances ? Have read here,some machines, some decks won't fit with too wide of spacers.

I need to ask. Typical mounting for the Bro-tek? Take off the old wheel studs, install new ones, off to the races. Did the kit come with instructions? Only reason I ask is because the picture on their website shows the wheel studs already in the spacer. Granted, that could just be for staging. I was just wondering.

There is a link to the instructions right next to the picture. Those spacers bolt on with new lug bolts that come with the kit and go in the holes between the studs.. The wheel is mounted to the studs with lugnuts.

Bro-tek spacers worked great...

BORA wheel spacers

2" Bro-tek spacers installed. Ordered thursday, arrived wednesday with monday being a US holiday. Fitment was great. Only issue I had was one original lock washer spread when I was torqueing the wheels down. I had another one that I replaced it with. We'll see how well they work. Here's a few...

The only problem that I have ever had with any spacers, no matter who manufactured them is the tight clearance in the bolt head holes. Needed to find a thin socket to accommodate the hole.

I had bought spacers many years ago and I recall something to that effect as well. Must be them Canadian bolt holes?

Yeah, I relocated two of the guide wheels to accommodate the spacers. Wasn't that hard, but you do need to be able to weld.
