Draw Bar for BX2200

[Duncan]

The fixed draw bar on the BX2200 is impossible to use with a ball hitch. Where can you find a CAT-1 3-Point draw bar that uses the top link also.

Look at the one from BAd River

See if it will work for you. You have to supply the drawbar, but they're $20 at TSC.

Here is a homemade one.

For the slight difference in price, the quality of the Mad River unit is far superior. With the one on e bay, you have the problem of the trailer pushing on the bar and the bar rising. Mad River has resolved that problem with their design.

Another problem with the ebay one and the one that I made is that when you make a sharp turn the trailer tongue hits the the support. It works OK as is but you have to be careful when making turns. I plan to solve the problem by adding an extension off the draw bar to mount my trailer ball on. The Bad River unit is a better design.

This one is homemade, works good for me.

Here, you can see how it just pins to the drawbar.

Thanks for all the replies. Checked with 3 different dealers today JD,MF/Kobota, and Case and none had any type of factory attachment for a trailer. My dealer, Kubota has been welding clips to a TS drawbar to pickup on the gussets on the lift arms. I am not going this route as the trailer ball would not be square to the world. Think I will try the Bad River attachement even though I did not want a receiver hitch. Thanks again for your help. By the way, checked out the 2230 today and it is only a 2200 with cruise control. Big Deal!
