Got it sorted OK, But got ripped off into the bargain. They wouldent budge, even though it was there mistake they still charged me more for the right one.
There loss, i have removed all there branding from the trailer (why should i advertise them) and wont be buying any more trailers from them. i buy approx 10-15 a year to go with the machines i sell.
So that will make it the dearest few pound they made from me.

AC just scroll up to my previous post to see some pics. Will post more once I get a close up view of Bruce's hitch today. I am interested to see the difference on clearance under the towbar, so will take along our landy and a measuring tape for fun.

On the ball Bruce, thanks.
Looks good, and will certainly solve the towball height issue for my bundu trailer.
I need to compare how much more clearance there is under the rear, and if this is good, then I'm going for it.

Re Towbar
Look in my gallery,
It has towed my 16 foot long trailer with 2 Ton and my off road trailer perfectly.
The cover fits on to hide electrics when not useing it so very neat .
It fits up level with bottom of bumperbar. It is held on by 12 half inch high tensile bolts.
The catch is, you will have to get someone to make it for you

My colleague and I got ours fitted by BRS today. I have posted a couple more pics. Apologies for poor quality, the pics were taken with an N80.
The clearance is great - the spare wheel will touch down at the same time as the towbar. No more ploughing!
