towbar
Early December in Sodwana I saw a White Patrol (4.8GRX) NW reg with a nice towbar. looked like it was bolted to the chassis , but had a piece linking it to the bumper 4 hole recovery point as well. Also had high lift holes in it.
Any idea on the manufacturer of these?

Re: towbar
I looked at making such a mod to my towbar. A simple plate with holes drilled in right places can achieve this. I think it will add tremendous stregnth to the towbar. I have nt yet had teh time to implement though.

Re: towbar
Nope wasn't a stealer, else a name plate with all the details would have been provided.
Front Runner does not list a towbar for the Patrol.
I have a feeling it might have been a once off. Maybe we should get Peter to make us some.

Re: towbar
If front runner check it upclose and properly, the 3k front runner we fitted to the Disco is pathetic. It takes an excellent recovery hole and makes it defunct.
