Jerry, I dont think its that they're missing them, its more like they never had them. Those rock shafts main purpose in life was to raise cultivators, mounted picker parts, etc., not operate a 3 pt. Using those rock shafts wasnt a real good draft system like "real" 3 pt hitches had via a better top link and hydraulic draft control system. The factory top link arrangements used on those rock shaft 3 points is a real wierd cumbersome set up when hooked to the plows JD designed for them in my opinion. Theres just no good top link place on the old Johns because the shafts were primarily made to lift cultivators. So, there not attached cause they never were on there usually in the first place.
