RTR might not appreciate a Ford designed to use turd fergy implements.
Imagine a Ford lowering itself for Fergy implements!
Whoops. Didn't Fergy invent the 3 point?
I wonder how Fergy got into that snooty Ford?

Now that I have had my fun. . . .

I have used them for attachment points for limiter chains on a brush hog.

Look up Dearborn rear mount manure loader and you will find the instructions
for mounting one including pictures. I bought one but could not mount to my
2N because it does not have them.

I'm sure Ford had grand plans that they would be used for future implements, but in reality very few were designed to use them. Disappeared after the Jubilee/NAA so tells you how needed they were.
