Category 2 drawbar stablizer/lock

I find this very odd: I can find category 2 drawbars, but only category 1 drawbar locks or stablizers.

What am I missing?
 
I just find it curious that 3pt cat II drawbars are plentiful. I can get one at the local hardware store. Cat II Locks aren't. I can't even find them online, even after a *lot* of looking.

Is there some reason a lock is more commonly desirable on a cat 1 tractor than cat 2?
 
The thing is the Ford 9N 7 2N did not have a different drawbar and the cross drawbar is all that is avaible so they want someway to keep it from turning. Most other tractors have a seperate drawbar so do not use the cross drawbar so no need for a lock. Then some of these tractors had the seperate drawbar but not all of them, Ford 8N, NAA, 6xx, 8xx, 2000 and 4 cylinder 4000, Ferguson TE20, TO20, TO30, TO35, F35, F40, and all are cat 1 so that is why they are needed. Name one cat 2 hitch tractor that did not have a standard drawbar as factory, that could answer your question.
 
Tractors with CatI hitches typically had the Ford type arms. CatII tractors normally had telescoping hitch arms and every brand had their own design of the arms. No way to make a universal lock that would work on all tractors, and little to no need for a cross drawbar on the bigger tractors.
