 I expected that response on the Ford N board! But seriously, I'm not sure Harry had any made over here, I've only seen pictures in books & those sent to me by JohnUK & others on this board. It has 2 purposes I know of, also called the "pick-up hitch" it allows the driver to drop the hook & back under the Ferguson 2-wheel trailer's pintle hitch & pick it up without getting off the tractor. The 2-wheel design of the trailer puts half the load on the tractor's rear wheels. The location of the hook(under the diffy)prevents the dreaded flip-over tendency of these little tractors. The 2nd use of the hitch assembly is to pick-up weights on the T-bar without getting off the tractor. Used as counterweights on tractors w/ front loader. The ideal setup was to have a tractor w/ a FEL & a 2-wheel tipping trailer or manure spreader. You picked up the weights, use the FEL to load the trailer, drop the weights, back up to the trailer, pick it up & off you go. The tractor hydraulics power the trailer's hydraulic cylinder to dump the load. You can remove all the linkage & leave the hook bolted up under the diffy, here's a pic: Jeff
