Need drawbar dimensions for Deere 790

[CanDo]

I hope someone can give me a quick hand.

We got a good rain last night so I went out to roll our 2+ acres of lawn. Unfortunately, the draw bar is missing from my Deere 790! (This is the regular fixed or belly drawbar that comes with the tractor - not an aftermarket 3pt drawbar.) I normally have a rototiller or back blade on the tractor for both use and ballast and haven't used the drawbar in over a year. I never take it out so the only thing I can think of is that the pin fell out and then the drawbar slipped out. Who knows where it could be!

Anyway, I'll make a new one, but I thought I'd try to make one that replicates the original. I remember that there are several holes spread out over the length of the bar and the then there is the size of the bar itself. If you are a 790 owner and have a moment I sure would appreciate some help with the overall dimensions of your drawbar.

To the moderator: Not sure if this belongs here in the "Deere Owning..."? or if it should be in the "Parts/Repairs" or even "Build-it Yourself" section since I do intend to build a new drawbar. If I am incorrect, please do not hesitate to correct.

Thanks much JD5210. That's exactly what I need. Piece of cake from here on. :thumbsup:

I also appreciate the info on the jdparts.com site as I know it will be a resource for future use. So far I've found the part but haven't figured out how you got the specs yet but I'll keep floundering till I figure it out. In any-event, with the specs you've provided I can work up a replacement.

Thanks again.

I got the specs, by going to JDparts.com. Selecting English on the next screen in the upper left corner you select sign in/register. Here you register once, select a dealer and answer some questions. The next time when you sign in you will be presented with a screen, were you can enter the part number. A screen will be returned with the cost from the dealer you selected, availability at that dealer and sometimes the specs.

Thanks Clay 47. Should also work.

Thanks JD5210 for the follow-up and the excellent explanation. Upon reading, it quickly was apparent that I needed to "register" in order to get to the info... and there's the rub. After years of an ever increasing barrage of junk mail I have had to change my email and then, in order to protect it, quit registering at sites unless I find it absolutely necessary or at least extremely beneficial. I'll have to think about this one.

Thanks again.

I don't get junkmail from using jdparts.com. Don't think you will need to worry.
