New 8N onwer, rear end/drawbar question

[LD1]

The 11-hole drawbar that goes on the 3PH will do most of what you need.

There is tons of reading here about the dangers of pulling with the 3PH, and ways to overcome that danger (like the vertical straps pictured).

IF you plan to put a ball on the drawbar you need to do something to keep it from rotating. There are several things that can do that. There are pieces that go around the drawbar and attach to the lift arm, and there are also vertical pieces that bolt on and you can use the toplink. Or you can just get one of the 3-pt trailer mover attachments.

The only time my factory drawbar gets used on my kubota is to chain it down to the trailer.

The three-point trailer movers are slick. You can also weld up something similar using the 11 hole drawbar as a base. Weld a receiver in the middle, and a piece up from there to accept the top link from the three point. that will keep the bar from spinning, eliminate the need for the support stays (which are more expensive than they should be) and be pretty hand in general.

there is a draw bar that does fasten under the rear end. it slides into a slot under the tractor and is held by a large pin. also close to the other end there is a bracket that you put your top bar in and put the top bar in one of the 3 point hitch holes. if you had a ford dearborn disk you needed this draw bar so you could use the disk. to make it work you use the cross bar too. the disk has a rod that fastens to the cross bar. let the lift lever down the disk starts disking raise the lever and it quits. very simple.
