Need to find a cheap engineering firm that will knock up 2 for us! I will only use it occasionally to get the caravan moved into position at the side of the house. Its potentially going to be a tight squeeze, so thought it would be a good idea, if I can find one!

I have looked at one that someone fitted on here and they dont look too complex, so may even end up making one myself!

I started making one, to be hidden in the front lower valance, with a quick release swan neck tow ball. Ive made the drawings, just got to find time to finish it.

Give us a shout when you do, you may have 2 other buyers in waiting!

Would you mind sharing the drawings? My thinking is to buy a cheap 2nd hand swan neck tow bar then butcher it to make a front tow bar for the D3.

Is it worth the trouble when one can buy one in kit form with all right sized bolts etc from Watling Engineering? I use mine to carry a removable winch so it is well up to the caravan job.

Navigator,

Theyre not a bad price. £145 for the standard one. May be worthwhile, thanks for that!

Offers around £100 plus postage/courier? I'll get a photo of it later to see if it suits you.
