Although you don't say what tractor you have I
think it was a Ford 600 and I responded to
your origional post.
The 11 hole drawbar on the 3pt with the anti lift
stablilizers is good if you need to off set
something far to the side or for some other
special purpose. The under differential
drawbar is easier to use for many things.
It is often lower than people set the 3pt
drawbar. Lower is safer.
The hitch point is closer to the tractor so a
heavy tongue load on a trailer doesn't have as
much a chance to make the tractor nose light.
The closer a trailer is hitched to the
differential the easier it is to back up.
With many implements on the 3pt arms it is
still possible to hitch a trailer to the drawbar at
the differential.
A trailer ball on the drawbar is always upright
as opposed to the 11 hole drawbar that
rotates unless you fasten it steady.
These are only my ideas so decide for
yourself.
