Farmall model m 3 point conversion

Haygla18 · Mar 10, 2019

I have a 3 point I purchased for my model m. I bought tractor and hitch separate. Here is a pic of the hitch sitting on tractor not mounted. Any ideas on how to get things ligned up? Or is this hitch not suitable on a model m ?

Here is it in place but not bolted down because the holes are close but won?t line up seems like it won?t go far enough back in draw bar

Well what is holding the drawbar up then, you have taken off the strap's that go down on a 45 degree, which u got to do, keep moving things around till the holes line up, is all i can say!

I think youre going to have to remove the U shaped drawbar.

Haygla18 · Mar 10, 2019

The drawbar is mounted to the u bolts on the tractor and that?s all fine but the holes on the draw bar look like they don?t line up with the holes on the bottom of the 3 point. Was hoping someone had a parts breakdown of this 3 point. Not sure on the make but I?m starting to think it?s meant for a farmall h. Not sure if that is interchangeable with a M.

They are interchangeable.

Sell the 3 pt and enjoy pull implements. 3 Pt makes it a pain to get on and off of anyway.

With 2 hydraulic cylinders, it is a Saginaw. I have one on my M as it came that way. However the entire draw bar assembly was gone. I picked up a draw bar and welded a plate to support it near the bottom. They are difficult to mount and dismount, especially when wheels are set on 60 inch centers. It is a nice set up to cultivate with tho.

Try switching the vertical angle iron pieces between the horseshoe shaped drawbar and axle mounts side for side so the angle side is towards
the middle instead of on the outside. That looks like a cornhusker 3 pt I have one in the shed it was on my 350 when I bought it later I put
it on the H now it's off and in storage. Mine mounted in place of the 45 degree braces leaving the horseshoe drawbar in place. My email is
open if you need more help.

That's not a Saginaw unit.

I looks like the 3 pt on my 560. I believe on mine the angle iron uprights that hold the drawbar on the axle are reversed and the side frames on the 3 point is welded to them. Also on the top of the upright side frames of the 3 point there is a bolt hole. On mine there is a turnbuckle from that bolt hole to a plate on top of the axle where fenders would mount, gives more support to top part. I have the drawbar like yous mounted in the same place.

I have trouble posting pics here, but if you send me an email I can send you pics the 560 mounting should be similar to your M

Olyj1947 · Mar 11, 2019

What brand is it?

John M · Mar 12, 2019

Beats me! But I have a Saginaw unit, and its nothing like that.

Olyj1947 · Mar 12, 2019

I was told when I bought mine that it was a Saginaw and had no reason to doubt it. Until now!
