How are the towbars fitted, as standard, on Disco 1's? Are they bolted or welded to the chassis? How 'removable' are they?

Bolted but if it's been on there a while get the grinder out if you want it off.

Thanks.
Only reason I ask is 99% of the Disco's I've been looking at have them fitted - I would very rarely use it so would probably take it off, but would be handy to keep in the barn incase I did want to.

oh and btw i took my tow bar off, but its a good idea to get a pair of jate rings on the back for recovery purposes

Yeah Jate rings will be going through the chassis, but seeing as 1) I have no reason to tow, and 2) I don't have a driving licence letting me tow! I doubt I will be doing any.

nor do i, but if a mate breaks down or you get stuck offroad you need a recovery point on the back

That was meant for why the towbar was coming off, not for why I won't put Jate rings on it, because i will

i cut mine down on my last disco so still had a recovery point and it protected the tank, my current disco dont have a tow bar and it has a dent in the tank so i will be doing the same on this
