Massey MF 20 Owners I Need A Picture

Frank Dozer · Oct 21, 2020

My 1976 Massey MF 20 is all complete except I am missing the drawbar. The attachment pin and plates are all there except the drawbar. And I don’t mean the drawbar on the 3 point hitch. Can someone picture me so as I can order one.
Thanks,
Frank

The YT store has the 184611M1 straight drawbar.

Thank you, but that shows 3 drawbars. I was looking for a picture to see it on the tractor. Which drawbar came factory and why 3?

All three were available from factory, they are in the parts book with part numbers. Which one a tractor came with was dependent on what was ordered. Who knows what yours came with, if any. Info in the MF20 parts book indicates the straight one was standard.

The offsets were to tailor height for different tires and equipment that might be used. (The hitch pin hole diameter might be different in some.) The offset drawbars could be turned down, or up, to customize height for different equipment needs or tire diameters. The standard height for a 20 to 100 HP tractor drawbar, top of bar to ground is 15" (+/- 2"). If I was looking for a drawbar I would measure from the top of the drawbar slot to the ground and if it fell between 13" and 17", I would get the straight drawbar. If less than 13" or more than 17" (or I had equipment needing a high or low hitch point), I would get an offset drawbar. Just my thoughts.

I need to drag a few logs. Pine, birch, oak, etc. which would you
recommend?
I will measure the height soon.

I will guess the straight (184611M1) drawbar will be the right one for your tractor, if it has the 14.9 - 24 tires.

I dont have a swing drawbar on my tractor either. I did find a few more option on the AGCO site though for drawbar swing hitches for the 20 industrial. If you go to the Massey Ferguson parts book and go to the tractor section, then the accessories section, then industrial tractor and there are several optional hitchs.

In his first post above, he said "The attachment pin and plates are all there except the drawbar." He only needs the drawbar itself by that statement and is trying to decide which drawbar he wants, straight or one with an offset.
