Yes me too, still at worse case might need to do a bit of welding/fabricating to make it fit. Still cheap no mater what way you look at it. Mind you been looking underneath and can not seem to see where its going to fit. There are holes on the main rails but can not see where the extra support on the left fits. Still will be nice to have a tow bar at last and with out spending a fortune. Fingers crossed John

Ok got mine today and its fitted a bit of a squeeze with the under slung spare but got there in the end. Only thing is I had to drill two holes into the sub-frame as there were no holes ? to fix it. Nice and heavy gauge steel but only painted with enamel so chips like mad will think about repainting one day. Now just got to wire up the electrics.

Update

Almost gone round the bend since fitting the tow bar, went to work this morning and almost straight way had a vibration coming from the back. At first I thought it was the exhaust but after several hours tonight it turned out to be the back bit of the tow bar just vibrating against one of the bumper brackets. A quick grind with the grinder and now all is ok. Just thought I let you all know encase someone else get the same problem....

[POPEYE]

Cheer's John, Look's like a bit of work is required to fit these (alterations),
Still i dont mind that at the price, Wondering where he got his pattern from!
Hilux pick-up perhaps?, Aint got mine yet! no rush though as im tied up with these garage doors and i cant multi-task plus i want to paint the underside before i put it on, Ian

[mooter]

bit of a beast eh?! mine was delivered to work yesterday and I called up to speak with the receptionist who said it was probably a bit big/heavy to be taking on the tube! she's right. i also have an underslung spare but i will have the expert help of Tony and his grinder when fitting! Hopefully this evening.... tony, if you're reading this, see you soon!?

Picked one up on Monday fitted it Tuesday. Had to drill 4 holes, 2 in chassis and 2 in brackets, the pre drilled ones missed!!! Oh well I'd say they're about £40 worth!!!! LOL
