Anyone know where I can get a hitch like the one in the picture, notably #'s 25, 26, 27, and 28. It comes on a MF 2615 among others and I want to put one on my MF 1635. I measured all of the holes and everything will match up on my drawbar. Aside from going through a dealer are there any aftermarket options?

I think you'll be stuck with going thru the MF dealer. I can't imagine anyone producing these as an aftermarket add-on. Not enough demand for that. Good luck in your search though!!!

You might look at two options:

1.) See what a MF dealer wants for the part
2.) Find a standard drawbar and ask a machine shop what it would cost to modify/fabricate to what you want.

See which option is cheaper. That would not be a difficult part to fabricate.

get a piece of flat steel heat and make your bends, drill holes

Fabricating is something I do not have the ability to do and there aren't any machine shops in my area to request help from. I guess I'm gonna have to bite the bullet and talk to a dealer.

You might find a blacksmith, even a hobby one, to make it.

I wish. There's only lazy worthless welfare idiots where I'm at.

Looks to me like you could find everything on your list here

Except for the bar to add on, which you might be able to use a hacksaw and drill to modify this

Although it doesn't say what the offset is - probably a LOT cheaper than other alternatives though... Steve

I take it you have the draw bar & basically just need the top "Z". (Bolts pins are easy to find.) This if available from the dealer really shouldn't be to expensive. If it is, look for a tractor salvage yard. In Missouri "Cooks Tractor" is close to me & real handy to find treasures to build/modify with.

Yep. The "Z" part is pretty much it. I guess I'll check with the dealer. Did a quick check an Cooks website but turned up nothing. Will try the link that BukitCase posted for the hardware.
