Abstract
A stabilizing device comprising a rigid anti-sway roller journalled about a wear axle is mounted on an agricultural tractor. The device provides a rigid stabilizing opposing force between the draft links and the rear structure of the tractor, while allowing the draft links to be easily raised and lowered. The device also includes a special assembly whereby the stabilizing force can be varied by adjusting the distance between the roller and the rear structure. The adjustment is accomplished by rotation of a nut on a connecting bolt or rotation of a threaded bolt thus eliminating the need for adjustment shims.
