I have been bush hogging some fields and fence rows that have a lot of briars and woody growth and am having trouble with the pin that holds the stabilizer onto to the under axle bracket getting undone by a piece of brush. The stabilizer bar comes undone and bent.

My question is - is it a wise thing to use something more permant (for the job) like a bolt with a nylok nut or just leave the stabilizer bars off completly?

Thanks in advance,
Bill

for years my father always put either long bolts thru there, like 3 or 4 inch long, just dropped thru with no nut, or he would use a large sidelink to crosslink connector from an old set of tire chains, you know the links that are sorta like a clevis, he would open them up enought that they would slide thru the pin, never lost a stabilizer bar that way, yet i remember before he stopped using the standard lynch pins he lost a few stabilizer bars, i was about 4 years old and i remember him taking the bent up bars and bending them as straight as he could by hand and then laying them down in the driveway and slowly driving the tractor over them to flatten them out

yes, Used to work in the woods in PA and always put 7/16 bolts in the drawbar. Did the same thing with the plow when working in brushy conditions.
