Sometime back in the mid-1950s, my Dad took the short drawbar extension plates commonly found on a Farmall B or similar tractor, and bolted one to the front of the lower bolster on each of our H, M, and SM row crop tractors. The bolt spacing on those extensions is identical to the spacing on the flange at the top of the lower bolster unit. After installation, he heated each in a line across the plate about 3" ahead of where it attached to the tractor, and we bent the front of it down a few degrees with an adustable wrench. This gave each tractor a very useful hitch for backing wagons into the barn, and yes, we did occasionaly start one by pulling it on that hitch. I still have all three tractors, and none seems to have suffered any undue wear or damage from this practice.
