I wonder if anyone can help on this.
I have a 2015 110 with a standard LR fitted tow bar.
I need to fit an adjustable Dixon Bate slider for the trailer height 4” down from where I am today.
Do I need the full DB Towbar with the bracing arms, or will the standard LR bracing bars do the job? And I just fit the slider attachment in place of the LR tow ball mounting plate?

The DB arms look like they fit a lot lower then the LR ones due to where they take the towing force. ie at the same level as the tow hitch.
 
I've just fitted a full drop DB to my 90. If you post pics of your current fitting I can measure mine to see where the rear arms go to compare. Gut feel the chassis-to-back plate arms do need to be lower unless your existing arms will rotate to fit your new back plate and DB slider. Here's a link to there catalogue, this shows the DB components https://www.alko-tech.com/sites/def...dixon_bate_bradley_towing_components_2019.pdf
