I have an M with a aftermarket 3 point that has one cylinder and down force with the factory remote valve. Good for some things but that 3 point was mangled when I got it and I made it worse when trees I was bushogging shoved the lever into down position when I wasnt looking. It then bent the tar out of my bushogg hitch and turned it into a rotary roto tiller. The M has wheel wieghts and water in the tires so it takes no prisoners. I also have an H that I put a saginaw on and it has been the sweetest thing since sliced bread. Not one problem. Now the H just has one way hydros, no downforce so that is a factor especially in cold weather since it goes down slow till it warms up but still , it has been sweet and I have pulled some mighty big logs with it. Lets just say this, the brakes did my steering on those. I never did hook up the swinging drawbar on the H since I mostly use a boom pole and it would be in the way, but if doing tillage I would want the swinging drawbar as it has a nice steady low pulling point. Since I do a lot of logging, it is nice to keep the load out of the dirt so it doesn't eat saw blades or chains but I can drop the load down if it wants to rear up in front. As far as axel mounts go, not a problem unless you get stupid with it and they can crack where they go in the rear end housings. (One of my axel housings has a small stress crack where it goes in the housing but has been no problem, someone in the past probably snapped a slack chain to cause it) Be nice to it and it will be nice to you.
