No drawbar with backhoe subframe

[Rustnut]

I have a Massey 1835E with a backhoe and subframe mount. My problem is that subframe covers up the holes where the 3pt hitch anti-sway/stabilizer bars/chains/turnbuckles were designed to attach. To "fix" this, the draw bar assembly was removed and a different bracket was bolted in its place at the dealer. This bracket has points to attach the anti-sway bars. This gives me 2 problems:

1. I no longer have a drawbar
2. My anti-sway turnbuckles are inside of the 3pt lift arms and are more difficult to access

Has anyone else had to deal with this issue? Any aftermarket brackets or attachments? I have couple ideas in mind involving welding up brackets or drilling holes in the lift arms to allow access to original attachment point but wanted to see what smarter people than me have come up with.

Thanks

that sucks and sorry can't help but since asked on the Kubota machines I have with BH's (B2620 and the L Series machines)

- the draw bar stays in and fully accessible with sub frame kits installed.
- 3pt system is unaffected and no mod's from factory design
- pto shaft and shaft cover also did not need any changes.

If I see your pictures correctly, weld on two receivers for your anti sway onto your drawbar bracket. Change the elevation of the new additions so the anti sway crisscross for easier access.
