In the back of the 4000 series booklet is a picture and a few words about some ball and claw draft arms. Anyone have them? Cost? Which tractor?

Looks to me like they'd just replace the regular draft arms and would be a whole lot easier to use than the standard, swivel-ball, ones. Wonder why they wouldn't be standard?

It appears that the top link can even have a claw on it.

Didn't find anything searching for this of any value other than to confirm that they exist.

Ralph I have them on my 3130 JD. I don't use them because the pins you pull are rusty and truthfully I am more used to making sure I back in straight to the implement.
