What’s this metal loop under the axle?

Lo Boy 185. Under the axle... doesn’t look like a tow point to me but I don’t see it referenced in my owners manual?

It's where the drag link attaches for a 222 sickle mower. See manual on page 27, diagram 27 in the manual under PDF manuals.

I can’t seem to find a folder labeled 222 or anything like that with the manual inside. I feel like an idiot.

Click on Quick Links, then PDF Manuals, go to the numbered LoBoy section (154, 185, 184). It's under attachments there.

I believe that it is a tow point. My 184 has one, as did the 154 we had when i was a kid
