Bolt on tie downs

jigs_n_fixtures · Jul 10, 2025

Does anyone know of a manufacturer of bolt on tie down points for TYM tractors?

I chock the wheels, and then chain down the axles on my T233 and T293 when I need to trailer them, but it would be easier to tie it down if there were bolt on chain points, which bolt to the frame and have pressed out chain eye holes on the ends of the frame rails.

I've seen bolt on units for other brands on YouTube. just wondering if anyone knows of a source?

I just wrap a chain around each front corner of the tractor frame for the front tie downs, and run chains out to the back corner tie downs off of a straight clevis hitch on my draw bar in back. Binders on each corner. Don't need any "hooks". Works fine for me.

I replaced two of the bolts on the front frame with eyebolts. These bolts are threaded through the frame so I installed threaded bolts that were longer and I added a washer and nut to make sure they held. I use the eyebolt to tiedown the front of the tractor when I trailer it.
The picture shows which bolts I replaced, I never took a picture of the upgrade.

Im not sure of the shear strength of a bolt on device to hold back a tractor…especially a tractor hooked to a trailer that is involved in going from 60mph to 0mph in a matter of seconds….. think crash
