I am reading the owners manual looking for the horizontal load limit for the drawbar. I can't find it. Furthermore in the specifications section it states 1675 lbs as max vertical load on bar. Back on page 65-1 it states that 550 lbs is max vertical load, fully extended. I am buying a chain and Clevis for drawbar and just want to know what limits exist? Anyone know? I figure the bar should take 2000 lbs

There really isn't a horizontal limit. You can hook up to anything you want. You will either move it, spin the tires or stall the engine. You will not break that drawbar by pulling on it.
