Where to buy drawbar for b2150 (for trailer hitch)

[Mr. Z]

Anyone know where I can get a drawbar setup to put a 2"ball hitch on my b2150?

My parts book shows a drawbar assembly (02T120) but I'm having trouble finding one in the wild.

Thanks.

There are numerous places to get one. For convenience sake, I got mine from my Kubota dealer. However, there are many other places to get one such as Agri Supply, Northern Tool, or Tractor Supply Company. All of those places will get you one for about $100 or so.

Don't be surprised if it's over $100. When I bought my JD 790, it was missing the drawbar. A new one was $190 (in that neighborhood, everywhere that I looked). My local Kubota dealer had a generic drawbar on their shelf, covered in dust; I would have had to cut it down and drilled it to work, but I was fine doing that. But, they wanted $185.00 for it.
I eventually found an old, used one, and worked it to fit.

Might give these folks a call. http://www.japanesecompacttractor.com/default.htm

I sent a message to the folks at www.japanesecompacttractor.com

Any after-market options?

Here is a link to some drawbars for pulling trailers. Four of these are under $100. You will need to add shipping and maybe sales tax but these are all good.

BTW, you DO NOT want the cat 0 drawbar. make sure that you get the proper category bar for your tractor. Yours is a cat 1 3 point hitch.

You could do something like this too...

Plus it gives you the ability to back right up to the trailer lift it and drive off.

So I'm trying to avoid a 3pt trailer hitch setup, primarily because I don't want the trailer to lift up...

This is almost embarrassing but I also needed a drawbar. I went to a local metal supplier and asked for 2" by 3" steel and they sheared it for me at either 11 or 14", can't remember. Then I drilled the appropriate-sized holes holes at both ends. They charged me $4.00!

I wish steel was that cheap around here.

$4 is extremely cheap. How many years ago?

2”x3”x14” is nearly 24lbs. Works out to be about $0.17/lb.

Not everyone has the capability of drilling the required hole through a thick piece of steel.

 

[fender76]

Yes, $4.00 is extremely cheap. Was it the correct price ?, couldn't be. Do I care ?, no , not really. But we are missing the point.
When we start talking about almost $200 for a piece of steel with two holes in it, that's wacko! I was simply trying to suggest an alternative.
I drilled the two holes with a Chinese bench-top drill press I bought in the 70s.

I've bought this for my BX :

Gives you the possibility of having a drawbar with a hitch ball and one without to tow a pinned trailer. Or just keep the bar alone

Canadian website (in CAD $) but may be able to find out in US with the part # for much less than 100 $ ;-).

Thanks for the info I also need a draw bar for my 2150 .

I don't know if you mean this sort of attachment.
I used the bar that was supplied with my B2301 then added a 2x2 section drilled for a pin, added a stop so it did not ride up and then drilled for a standard receiver.
I have a selection of bits that fit.
