I've handled a lot of slopes with this kubota L3901 but the loader is getting unavoidably fuller and with the weight I've already got in the rear, I'm thinking about adding an angle meter but I've been second guessing the decision (like I do to a lot of other decisions) but really, I just feel uneasy about this, although nothing alarmngly major has happened, am I being paranoid?...or whatever scratch that
Anyone out there running one on their Kubota?, where did you mount it and how has it been, I'm also open to other ideas for improving the sidehill stability, I dont need crazy mods tho, just real practical stuff, pocket friendly too

Thanks a lot in advance guys
 
I wouldn't say I'm paranoid,just being cautious, especially when I've got a loaded bucket. I installed an angle meter on my L2501, it's right on the dash where I can easily check it. It didn't cost much and gives me some peace of mind. I also put on some wheel spacers and made sure to keep the rear ballast as low as I could, which really helped when navigating side slopes. Are you using loaded tires as well, or just adding weight in the back?

You're not being paranoid at all, just smart. I added one on mine near the dash and it really helps gauge when things start getting sketchy.
