I get tired of going to find a drawbar every time I need to move a trailer. I have a few laying around as I have all different height trailers. Now I use a Weigh safe set up with both a scale head and a turnover head. It adjusts to any height trailer and gives me a hitch weight so I can be sure it's loaded right. So I made a bracket to store one on the tractor. I used the holes in the front of the frame. Made it from 2" flat bar. I have 2" receivers mounted in both my fork attachment and my 3 point quick attach. I just used 2 to 2 1/2 adapters for the receivers. Now I have a drawbar handy all the time.

That's why I posted it. It is such an easy project if someone has a welder. I hope it will benefit others.

I added a 2 to 2 1/2 adapter to my Frontier fork frame. Just a little 2" flat bar and that adapter. The adapters are light and all ready to accept a drawbar. I also welded one to the bottom of the cross bar on my Harbor Freight quick attach. IMG_20190505_191643526.jpgIMG_20190505_184829438.jpg
