Just bought one that says its the "fixed type" now that doesn't bother me as I'm using as a recovery point rather than a towing eye seeing as I don't have a trailer license.
However their site confused me as it says this;
"The Dixon-Bate 7.60T Medium Tow Pintle has Worldwide recognition as it is in use in armies around the world and specified by most military vehicle manufacturers.
The Light Tow Pintle features a lower lock designed to secure the jaw in one position or allow it to rotate 360deg. The lower lock is secured with a steel pin and clip.
With the exception of the 5 tonne Towing Jaw (Part No 201910). Towing pintles are the only products designed to tow trailer fitted with the military 3 inch towing eye."
I was trying to work out wether or not I'd bought the light or medium version as the blurb is the same on both items. Either way I'm not arsed I was just wondering and kinda hoping it was the medium as I assume its gonna be a bit bigger and tougher.
So anyone know if its light or medium ?
