Tow bar fitment was created by mattsccm
Would any kind soul like to post pics of the tow bar fitment mounts/points on the chassis. I want to make a carry rack for farm use but would like to mount it as a tow bar would to use the strongest points. Buying a bar is a bit daft as much of it will be chopped.

I'd keep an eye on ebay and pick yourself up a cheap towbar and mod it.

The mounting points are just some 12-15mm holes in the main chassis rail.
The exhaust side is more complicated due to the tail pipe.

Excellent. Many thanks.
Buying a cheapy on ebay doesn't work easily as they seldom appear then fetch daft money.
