Tallsam, yours is drilled for 20mm as you wanted to "possibly" snatch off it ;)

I use a 20mm too but never seen that size on tard me, best to just cough up the bucks and buy one from where you got the tow bar so you know its quality!

I found some Hilti 20mm grade 8.8 bolts & cut them down & drilled a hole in it.
Brought some clips from bunnings so now have 4 pins for a total cost of about $6

:D :D :D :D :D
