Grand L swinging drawbar

[wmonroe]

Does anyone have the swinging drawbar option in their grand L tractor? Mine has the fixed drawbar and when fully extended is 12” from the pto to center of the hitch pin. The industry standard and measurement needed for many implements is 14”. Just curious if anyone that has a swinging drawbar can check and see if it is 12” or 14” when fully extended.

I believe they have a drop-down draw bar that is longer then the straight one. You need to check the distance from the draw bar up to the PTO. There are some PTO shafts that will not fit due to the size , diameter, of the CV joint.

Yes, Kubota does make a longer 4” drop drawbar that also meets the 14” pto to pin hole measurement. Buying one of those is my backup plan as I like the ground clearance the straight drawbar provides. A 4” drop will catch more hay from the windrow.
