I'm starting a pulling project with a friend of mine and I'd like to see some pics of wheel hub and pulling hitch setups from you guys that pull M Farmalls. I used to pull this tractor about 10 years ago. I'm looking to build it right this time since I have full access to our machine shop. Thanks for the help guys!
 
Took this picture at a pull in Lawrenceburg TN last weekend. Ain't mine....... Just thinking about doing something similar so I can pull with my Ford 960. It ain't on a farmall either. Maybe useless to you.

From a safety standpoint, you should always seperate your hitch and wheeliebars. In my area this setup is not legel. Check the rules of the club you are running with.
 
Top of adjuster should be below centerline of axle. Hitch breaks and the pull is now transferred to the top of the axle and up comes the tractor.
 
Looks like some real engineering went into that conglomeration. They are expecting the turnbuckles to support the weight if they hit the ground. They either cut it up with a torch or up their life insurance.
