I almost made some scrap metal today

[PRF]

This one is made in china.

explains it all

Don't know, I bought a draw bar years ago, and paid dearly for it. Done some horrendous things with it. Ain't hurt it yet.

Made in the USA. Made of USA steel.
Worth every penny.

That don't look like no Draw bar to me Roger. My draw bar is connected under the trans

 

[rsallen]

What is the correct terminology murphy 1244 ?
Is it just a matter of a spacing point? Drawbar as opposed to draw bar?

I like things to be clear too.

 

[murphy1244]

The draw bar does not mount on the links, its mounted to the rear end diff.

 

[rsallen]

And the bar mounted on the links are called....?
What?

It's an honest question.
Just want to get it all straight in my head.

 

[murphy1244]

Have to look at a TSC catalog. That's a 3 point trailer hitch bar

 

[murphy1244]

Seems they call them both Draw Bars. My fault very :confused2:

 

[rsallen]

Thanks,
gotcha, so a hitch bar is the more correct term.

So then, many years ago I bought a hitch bar. I paid dearly for it, like I had to wash my shorts out when the bill came due.
Done some horrendous things with it since.
And it wasn't suffered a bit.

Made in the USA. Made of USA steel.
Worth every penny.

Both are called drawbars.

The very definition of a drawbar :

A bar on a vehicle to which something can be attached to pull it or be pulled.

Seems they both fit the definition
