  • Publication number: 20230050676
    Abstract: A drawbar support assembly for adjustably supporting a drawbar of an agricultural vehicle includes a support member fixable relative to a frame of the agricultural vehicle. The support member has first and second support flanges laterally spaced apart, each flange defining flange holes longitudinally spaced apart from each other. The support assembly further includes a drawbar hanger having a bar support portion and a saddle portion. The bar support portion extends between first and second lateral ends and defines a first bar support hole proximate the first lateral end and a second bar support hole proximate the second lateral end. The saddle portion is fixed to the bar support portion such that an opening is formed for receiving the drawbar. The drawbar hanger is selectively positionable relative to the support flanges along the longitudinal direction such that the bar support holes are aligned with respective ones of the flange holes.
