Nancy, I don't think you have any Ford Or Ferguson tractors but all the Ford from 39 to 64 except possibly the 6000 the stabilizer bars fastened to a bracket on the bottom side of the axle on the fender bolts at the front and on the back on the cat 1 three point hitch pins and you were supposed to pull the pin at the front and lay the bars asside while you were hooking up and then put the bars back on. Without an implement unless you had the 11 hole cross drawbar in there was nothing to hold the back end of the bar in. The orignal Ford lift arms has a place to store the lynch pins in and they were fastened with a piece of chain from the factory so you did not loose them. I have many a time wraped that chain around the bar to holt it up while changing implements. The replacement lift arms do not have that storage loop on. Later tractors the bar fastened to a pin that was perminate in the lift arms and you could do like you say in leaving them on to stop the sway without an implement.
