Anyone know what I get to attach a drawbar? Going to be skidding some logs around soon and I could get a bar that attaches between the three point arms but I’d prefer to be attached at the hitch below the line of the axles. Here’s a pic of my setup.


What goes in these holes on the “receiver”?

The bar between three point arms is like 25 dollars so looking for a solution on par with that.

Thanks!

I think you're looking for something like this. This will not fit your specific tractor. It's just a piece of steel that has a hole up front for a pin, and a hole towards the back for another pin, and then a hole at the very back to hook a clevis to for your purpose.



You can go to a local shop and have them drill the holes as you measure your tractor mount.

The Drawbar that D2cat put up would not work for you unless you alter the stock hitch to fit it, there is no hole in the back for the bar to go through.

Your style of hitch would just take a pin in the holes, that's where they would attach the tongue of a trailer to it.

For dragging logs, I would either get a pin or clevis and a short cable loop to attach a chain to and call it good.

Thanks for the ideas. Maybe I’ll get me one of these if my chain hook can fit through it.

This is what I have on mine for "pullin stuff"......
I also have the draw bar for the 3 point, but I only use that for trailers
did not want all that stress on the smaller three point system.

You can also probably find a locking clevis or clip for safety purposes.
