Statesville, NC | The U.S. standards for drawbars (16" behind 1000 rpm pto) is not good for heavy drawbar loads. They have it figured out in Europe. They do a lot more heavy hauling with tractors than we do here. They have hitches that are very close to the rear end housing of the tractor. This is the same effect as a gooseneck vs. a bumper hitch trailer. If you look at their trailers the axles are set back more and the tractor carries a much higher percentage of tongue weight. This improves traction, capacity, and handling. | |
