Tow Ball hitch

Depends what you want it for. For a recovery point, I wouldn't suggest any less than a bit of 3x3 welded between the front chassis rails, with an arrangement to bolt the towball to. For lighter duties, I don't know the exact layout of the Disco front end, but a ball bolted to the bumper of the S2 in line with the chassis rail seems to be quite adequate for shifting trailers around etc, if that helps at all.

The bumper on a disco is made of much lighter metal than the one on a Series

- just the noseweight of a decent size trailer will probably distort it.

Some places do make replacement Disco bumpers with mounting points for towballs.

P.

True, I was thinking more of the location (with a bit of suitable bracketry) - a front towball offset to one side is much more useful than a central one for manoeuvering trailers. Take your point about the metal, though. Should have read more carefully before sending.

Try these from David bowyer. You can get a detatchable towbar which slides into the jacking tube. I've launched large ribs no problem with them. Have also been recovered with them from a sticky situation.

Sorry the link didn't come out all the way. They're called jackmates and they're in the winching accessories section on the products page.
