Looking at putting 2" rear spacers on my LX2610.
Stahl/Steel or Bora or Bro-Tek ?

On my 2nd set of Bora's (2 different tractors), beautiful product, easy install, and above all, great customer service! And, made in USA. Good Luck!

I went with steel from Messicks…kind of expensive… 1.5 inches just in case I want to put on tire chains

I went with 2.5" bora spacers on my lx2610. Rear tires stayed just within the width of the bucket.

Today I picked up a used pair of 2" spacers for $40 locally. The seller didn't remember where he bought them but there was a number on the spacer. Using that number I found that they were sold by Walmart (presently out of stock) and they fit Fords and Lincolns. Took that description and put it into Amazon and found them for $59 new and $48 used but look like new. This is how Amazon sells items the packaging is torn and the product returned. Saved $8 plus the sales tax and would have had to wait a few days to get them. These are used and look like new except for the dust from his barn.

Just get the ones that meet your price and delivery expectations. Plenty of other things in life to actually worry about besides wheel spacers.

That being said, no doubt somebody on here lost everything including their dog because they didn't buy one specific type of spacer.

Went with 3" Bro-Tek for our LX2610. It already had kubota dealer installed 1 1/2" spacers but I picked up some gargantuan Trygg ladder style snow chains. The inside shackles came too close to the hydraulic lines on the outside of the right frame area. I will let you all know how it turns out when I get them installed. Bro-Tek assumes that you don't have spacers already so their instructions are close but don't work because you are short four of the tapered head stud bolts. Looking forward to getting it done.

I installed these over 5 years ago.
No problems.... bolted right up.

At the time they were $33.00 they are now $52.00
Billet alum. 6061? not sure....
But I would bet a dime to a dozen donuts that they are the same as the high dollar units.

All I know is it sure beats paying $250.00 or more for the name Brotek

My $0.02

Easy to find those for the BX. I have similar on my BX 2200.

More difficult to find something like that which will work for a larger tractor. I ended up going with 4 inch BroTech on my B2910.

Tonka, I’ve got 4 inch spacers from Bro-Tek. Absolute game changer on hilly land.

Richard from Bro-Tek is dynamite. Prompt follow up, he has many spacers in stock & is easy to deal with. Shipping out of Canada … so keep that in mind.

Please keep us posted as to which direction you go.
