I was trying to look this up but all the treads were really old and didn't quite answer my question.
The topic of an aftermarket 3pt has been stuck in my head because of current market they dominate implement hitches. A 3pt goes on the axle brackets and not the swinging drawbar.
So I got to wondering what the capacities are of the hitch as a whole. The swinging drawbar takes the brunt of the horizontal load and puts it on the center of the tractor. The fixed U drawbar takes the down force loading.
Does anyone know what capacity these were rated for?
