MX6000 draw bar issues.

[Jaymedic44]

Does anyone know the part number for Kubota’s drop drawbar for an mx6000?
I bought a Titan 1912 flex wing mower and it won’t work with the stock drawbar. Need 8 inches from the center of the pto and the top of the drawbar. There are only 5 1/2 inches with the stock drawbar.

You can look it up on Kubota site. Parts, illustrated parts, agree to terms, enter mx6000. You’ll find it.

Have to do it from computer.

Just looked on messicks site, it’s not there. I know I’ve seen it on the main Kubota site though.

I was at Tractor Supply today and they have an assortment of drawbars available. Might be worth looking into if one is local. I see you are in Pennsylvania. The store I was in is located in Latrobe, PA.

A straight aftermarket drawbar is not going to gain you 2.5 inches of physical separation between the PTO shaft and drawbar.

* disclaimer i know nothing about M's.

This problem appears to be unique to kubota, it's discussed here

Kubota must know it’s an issue because if you go to their site and build your mx6000 it is an option under drawbar.

Interesting, do they offer ones that step down several inches immediately after the draw bar receiver? I assumed any draw bar would be straight

Here are the parts and a link to an earlier thread with photos. If you have a welding machine or access to one it would be an easy modification. You might even save some money paying a local welding shop to make you one or modify the existing one.

Has anyone got one of the drop down draw bars? I’d be interested in purchasing your straight draw bar if so.
