At the tug pulls I attend there is a 18 inch limit on drawbar hieght. The axle clamps that drawbar bolts to has two hieghts on it, I had it on the tall end which had my draw bar running about level at 18 inches. I turned the bracket over and mounted it that way, but then my drawbar hieght was a little more than 16 inches, so I loosened the support brackets on lower end an the drawbar bolts from upright brackets attached to tractor this lets the drawbar pivot on bracket. Then remove bolts from support raise drawbar up and put bolt back in one of the other holes and raised it back to 18 inches. This put a angle to the drawbar thus changing the pull on tractor. There are 2 or 3 holes in the corner of drawbar for adjusting drawbar hieght. It has been my experiance that tug pulling will not hurt your tractor. These old girls are very tough. You do however need a really good clutch and rear seal in your tractor or that sled will slip it. It is raining a flood here has been most of the day.
