I am still working on the pics. I should have them to post tomorrow. I appreciate the replies and I am getting about what I was expecting. Thank you for not bashing me or making me look like I don't know what I am working with. I understand the tractor's abilities, but I am confused that my dealer sold me "heavy duty" implements that won't hold up to my tractor. I have done lots of research since my purchase, including the manufacturers sites and the specs for my box does say it is a heavy duty design, but only up to 35 hp on a 4wd. The 4530 is rated at 42.5 engine and 34 pto hp. I guess this means I should have researched before I bought! Also, after looking at what my dealer had on the lot, my implements were the heaviest there, so I guess I should have been more specific and had them order heavier.
The drawbar I was referring to is the one for the 3PH. It is a Cat I and is about 1 1/8" thick with holes drilled across it. It bent while pulling a rather large stump to the burn pile. The stump was already out of the ground and I had a chain hooked to it. As a note, I always worry about rollovers, probably to the point of being too scared to operate in some eyes. I hate working inclines where the tractor is side loaded more than anything.
I think the box will hold up better now that I reinforced it. As far as the tractor, I rarely work it at full power, so with throttling back and taking it easy, maybe I can spare some of the equipment.
And no, knute_m, I'm not screaming yet! I was referring to the lectures I get from my dad when he tells me to take it easier on the equipment by not running the tractor as hard - hence 'lightening up'. As I said, if I ran it any more cautiously, I may as well have bought a Murray riding mower! I guess the results speak well for Mahindra. These machines are built well and if you don't have enough beef on the equipment, it simply won't hold up to the power. I have always said the rated power is way under what is actually there.

The spacer in the bottom holes of the box mast is made from a stack of 3/4" stainless washers welded together. A normal bushing didn't have enough surface area for me. In fact, the box didn't come with this bushing at all which is what I blame some of the bending on. The piece of 2" x 3" plate on the back of the mast is just sitting there and not part of the repair.
