Allan: You've got to broaden your horizons, you remind me of a neighbor years ago, "If all else fails consult the manual". In the days when that drawbar was developed most farmers were pulling drag type disks and cultivators. It was suggested right in the manual let the drawbar swing unpined for easier turning. You just sit back and think about that geometry. If you like, step ahead to 1960s and 70. with large trailer type disks and cultivators, most 06, 56, 66 and 86 series tractors had telescoping drawbars or a large flat bar with two holes. The extended bar was designed for standard pto operation of trailer pto equipment. You shortened that drawbar, brought your hitch pivot closer to tractor rear end for easier turning with disks and cultivators. That also was in the manual.
