Multi Height Tow Bar Removal

My Multi Height Tow Bar is proving difficult to remove from the chassis. Sad I've tried to loosen it with WD40 but to no avail. Does anyone have any tips?

Bob, which bit? Is it the side arms that are rotating inside the secondary nut/socket where they join the chassis or is it the key won't turn to unlock the main drop plate from the chassis?

You do have a spanner on the other side of the chassis rail dont you, to stop the sleeve turning round?

@ al cope - now that would be a schoolboy error! Embarassed


@ bosdy - thanks, but may not need this. It looks as though I've made a schoolboy error. Whistle Thud
