You know that side-to-side wandering your drawbar does when you’re pulling implements or towing wagons? That’s not just annoying – it’s dangerous and hard on equipment. When your upper stay arm wears out or goes missing, your drawbar whips around like a loose cannon, making it nearly impossible to keep implements tracking straight down the field and creating sketchy conditions when you’re hauling on the road.
What You’re Getting
- Heavy-duty 1/4-inch thick steel construction that handles the leverage forces from offset loads
- Blue TISCO quality with the strength to control drawbar movement under all conditions
- Direct replacement design that mounts to your existing brackets without modifications
- Built to work with the lower stay arm for complete drawbar stabilization
Built for Real Farm Work
This upper stay arm is designed for Ford tractors where drawbar stability matters. Whether you’re running vintage Ford N series tractors on smaller operations or using utility tractors for cultivation, mowing, and transport work, a solid stay arm system keeps your equipment where it belongs. These tractors handle everything from hay operations to loader work, and proper drawbar control makes all the difference.
Made to Last
The quarter-inch steel thickness isn’t just for show – it’s sized to handle the constant stress of implement pulling and the shock loads you get when hitting rocks or uneven ground. This stay arm resists bending and fatigue cracking that lighter components can’t handle, giving you years of reliable service in real farm conditions.
Good to Know
Installation is straightforward if you’ve got the lower stay arm and mounting brackets in good shape. Check that your drawbar pin and bushings aren’t worn out – loose bushings will let the drawbar move even with good stay arms. Many operators don’t realize that proper stay arm adjustment dramatically reduces tire wear on towed implements by eliminating that crabbing motion down the field.
