Drawbar Lock

[Bamadan]

Seeking information, I'm looking for a drawbar lock that will fit a Cat 2 lift arm. I've found them that fit a Cat 1 hitch, but not a Cat 2. Tractor Supply guy told me today, he did not think there is a Cat 2 lock. I have not found one online. Is there such a thing? Where to find? Or do I need to solve my problem another way? Thanks, Dan

Just get some 2-1 bushings. TSC should have them.

Edit: I may misunderstand what you mean by draw bar lock. They fit OVER the arm?

Edit 2: now I see what you’re looking for. I thought those would still fit some cat 2 bars, but maybe not. Probably wouldn’t take much modifying to make them fit.

What is a drawbar lock? Purpose?

They're used to keep a 3pt draw bar from rotating on the pins.

Something else to buy. I believe I can make those in a short time. For the price I found probably cheaper to buy.

Ive got 3 of those draw bars layin around, dont even remember when I last used 1, but I do remember this 3 different widths, 3 different thickness, and 3 different pin hole size! I think 2 cat 2's, 1 cat 1!

I’ve got one too. Probably got it at auction with other stuff. It had a trailer ball on it when I got it. I recall staring at it a few times wondering how in heck it could work. Now I know, but I’m still at a loss for useful application.

I have three. A guy at a flea market had one for $10 last year and I thought I don't know where my other two are so for the price if needed will save me time looking for the other two.

I bought one thinking it would be handy for moving various trailers and pull implements around without having to get off the tractor. Turns out the one I bought wouldn't fit the ball hitches I have so it's all but useless to me.

They're real handy for tearing up anti sway bars ...

didn't tractors use to come a cross bar draw bar 50's, 60's?? I think that where I got them. or me and the old man.

I think it’s a Ford-Ferguson-Massey thing. My 1941 Ford 9N doesn’t have a spot for a drawbar. Just a horizontal bar between the 3pt arms.
