Just to make you think before you die.

No way in heck should you try this with a M. We busted a draw bar on a 1486 and bent one on a 4020. If all is well, these tractors should work, but when a trailer house gets in time with the bumps in a HWY it is to much for the drawbar. We always move them with all household stuff in place.

I think by the time you drop the trailer behind your M and get to the roadway you will understand real fast what negative messages here advise.

Seems a farmer thinks his tractor is a little more than it truley is. You will need a 2 5/16 ball, and your M will probably need a litle torch work to make the hole larger. A AC 190 also needs to have the hole inlarged as a general rule. A 1486 probably will fit. If you chose a M (or any tractor for that matter) make sure that the nut on the ball is tight. Many balls have been used on thicker drawbars and the threads are stripped. If so washer it up as the shaft will snap if it does not draw down tight.

The jacks are usualy welded or bolted stable and do not go up real high, so your tractor drawbar best not bend down to much. This is not important on a road, but once you get in a yard and it is a little soft you get in trouble fast.

Dual wheels add to the stability, but limit you on turns, as the trailers have little tounge length. A 806 to 1486 will best be fitted with front end weights if any extreem hills are involved. Like said elsewhere hills take on alot of different profiles.
