NATO/ball hitch

Feb 16, 2005 7 Replies

Anybody got any idea where I can get the new style combined NATO jaw and



50mm ball hitch and who makes it?

It looks like a NATO jaw with the 50mm ball mounted on the top - I have only ever seen one picture of it and have searched high and low for a supplier - there was one on ebay a while ago but I was outbid.



Any offers please?


That one comes from here:

'Gancho G Bola' under Accessories

.... but was it the one originally mentioned?

Yes, yes, that's the one I have spent bl**dy hours looking for. So, where do I get one from please + pretty please + pretty please with knobs on?

I spent the best part of 30 minutes trying to find the chaps business card - to no avail I'm afraid. You can continue your hunt by contacting Peak And Dukeries Land Rover Club though. I took the pics at the ARC National last year when P&D hosted the event at Matlock.

I believe it's one of their members selling them (nearly got one miself actually).

ooh, nice. Mind you, on my big trailer, the NATO hitch has to line up with the bumper of the disco (which it does by means of a monster attachment I made for the DB-style hitch which I also made), and that'd get the ball much too high for normal trailers, apart from military ones converted to ball hitch, I guess.

Looks good but most NATO hitch trailers have the hitch at crossmember level and most 50mm ball trailers have it at least a foot lower so how useful is it actually going to be in practice?
