9N Drawbar

I'm wanting to put a mounted drawbar on my 9N rather than using a 3 pt. drawbar but it's lacking the bolt holes on the underside of the differential housing. I've thought about making something similar to a reciever hitch on a pickup, spanning the fender mounts. Has anyone come up with a better design, more like the aftermarket hitch at a reasonable price?
 
cound get the type that goes around the pto mount bolts, and used the 3pt in combination.. or.. I bet you could get an 8n center rear section pretty cheap.. :)

Yes. The picture below is the receiver for a quick attach loader that I had on my 9N at one point. The 8N version bolted on using the drawbar holes in the bottom of the differential housing. This 9N version uses two semi-circular brackets that attach using the bottom 5 trumpet attaching studs. I have contemplated using that design to make a 9N drawbar mount to add to my product line. The brackets would be CNC laser cut from 5/16" plate and quite sturdy and the regular 8N mount would bolt to them in exactly the same way it bolts to the 8N. I would expect it to be modestly priced assuming the parts nest well for the laser cutter. If interested I'll draw it up and ship it off for a quote from the laser shop. In fact I may do that anyway since I think they would be quite popular. Give me a call if you want.

The picture looks like it was taken from the front of the tractor, is the back side of that piece a clevis, the same as the 8N mounts? It kinda looks like it but it's hard to tell. Did you have to put the tractor on stands to attach that bracket or how envolved was the process?

Yes the picture is from the front of the tractor. The receiver in the picture is not a draw bar bracket - it is used to attach a loader. What I'm saying is I can use that same attachment scheme to mount a flat plate with tapped holes to match the 8N pattern under the 9N differential. You can then use those tapped holes to mount the 8N drawbar just like on the 8N. I did the installation of that receiver outside on the ground with nothing more than a socket and vice grips. Remove and replace the lower studs on each side with longer ones and bolt on the side brackets using the original nuts. If you wanted you could replace the studs with cap screws and save a few bucks.

Ok, I'm following now. That would be a much better solution, I think it'd work really well. You could do good business if you did like you said and add it to your product line.

Yes I think they would be extremely popular. I'll get a drawing together and off to the laser shop for a quote. Send me your email so i can get back in touch when I have a price.
