Default 2" Receiver.

Has anybody done a 2" Receiver Hitch on the back of a Patrol?

I would like to do one, because I like the idea of interchageable tow/recovery soloutions!

has to comply, on an suv, or m class according to eu 9420, S reg or later.

agreed super flexability.

have seen on green oval forums that the G4 vehicles had them but were removed
on return to UK as not legit, shame. irony to me is are a better bet than most of
clip in removeable types seen on market though cant say seen any on nissans.
