550 drawbar

rustyplow · Sep 2, 2012

Anyone have a pic of back end of a 550 with a drawbar. Factory or not. I have the bracket that bolts to the bottom of the rear end but nothing else. I need to fabricate something and I'm looking for ideas. Thanks in advance.

They're not a whole lot different than the Row Crops. My uncle made one over from a 70,I made one from a 60 fit. To look at them,only noticicable difference is the lack of those 2 flat braces laying down flat inside of the frame.

I'm in the same boat you are,if I can't find that extra one I have from a 70 I'm going to have to make one.

Randy here is the bracket off the tractor and an 88 drawbar that I have. It will pin right on, but I can't see where to bolt the support arms to. Must be another bracket I'm missing. Unless they go to the center and hook where the top link would?

Yes,they went right in the top link hole. They were just a little longer than the Row Crop braces,had a short bend at the top end beyond the pin holes so both ends came together tight enough to take up any slop in the "clevis" where the top link pin goes.

Go to Dexter farm equipment they have 550 for sale that has a factory draw bar. You can see how it attaches at the top.
