Overview
A real-time installation walk-through of bolt-on fender extensions for the 2038R, filmed with a guest helper. The video is notably candid about a complication specific to this tractor: the fuel tank must be lowered on one side to drill the mounting holes, while the other side goes on in about 20 minutes. Also reveals that Galaxy Garden Pro tires require roughly 2.5-inch wheel spacers to clear the backhoe mounts. Useful for 2038R owners considering this exact mod.
