TowBar Help

[B*Witched Blingo]

Can anyone with Towbar knowledge help.

Forum member Yorkshire Puddings has what looks like an original Mazda Towbar fitted. Now the problem is it has not got the ball bit

It is a circular receiver with a pin. Sorry no pic yet but will take one today. Unfortunatley the ball bit did not come with the Bongo. If I had a name at least I could google it.

Please if you help it would be appreciated.

It is called a receiver type tow hitch. This is a common type of hitch in USA, but unfortunately with a square receiver.

I have never seen a circular receiver and the usual square ones are to an international standard.

I have a US square one on my Jeep. The idea is that you can remove the ball hitch for off roading to improve the approach angle, or to change the ball for a pintel hitch to tow off road.

No idea where to get a round receiver type tow hitch. The square ones are available from 4x4 specialists.

Unless someone could make one by modifying a square type hitch, the tow bar will need to be replaced.

Totally right as usual Kirsty. Apollogy for ignorance.

Its a pin system circular tow ball. Just like the US one but round. Problem solved by you as usual.
