wouldnt put it on there, thats only made to space the up rights and whoever you recovering might end up with it through their window, why not get a combi hitch or another sadle piece with a nato hitch, them type of tow bracket you got there also good for ploughing

ploughin ha!i dont get it:confused::p
 
He means they dig in when offroading and scrape the mud up as you're driving along.
 
Just been out to look at my shackles and towball ... and they don't fit over!

2 1/2 ton (I think) rated, Green coloured bolt ... won't fit onto the neck of either of my three towballs. (1 on my 'normal' removable towbar, 1 on a Ball & pin towbar, 1 a standard plain ball on a standard disco towbar fitment)
