I’m having a hard time finding a good/convenient place to tiedown the rear of a L2501 with the BH77 backhoe. I have the 5Eleven tiedowns on the front and love them, but I’m struggling to find something suitable for the rear. Any suggestions out there?

Interesting.
My 77 has 2 tie down points welded underneath the “foot area”.
It came like that from the factory.
Maybe you could add something similar?

I use a clevis in the drawbar anytime I haul the tractor. It works even with the backhoe attached.
I do something very similar when I made up a custom drawbar for the M6060. I added a piece of flatbar to act as a stop for a large D-ring that I use as an anchor point for chains. I wanted the get the D-ring as close to the tractor as possible to eliminate bending of the drawbar.
Thanks for the responses. “Runs with scissors”: that is what I need!!! I’m currently running a twisted clevis in the drawbar holes, however, it requires you to crawl up underneath and slide the chain through. I guess I’m just lazy, but there has to be a better way.
