Listen to Mike and other folks who have a clue what they're talking about.........is it a cat. one or cat. two drawbar? Either one can and will bend on a 4020 with enough weight on it.

Not a big deal, but you may (or may not) have to remove the housing to put it back on.........until you do it again.
