He replaced his rear diff and didn't realise he put it in upside down, so now he has 1 forward gear and 5 reverse gears lol.
Front tow hitch saves the day. lol

Nice, had one for my first t2, sold it when got a patrol.
used it once but found the time it took to unhitch, turn round then hitch again plus fiddly on own to align to front ball, suppose with practice or some kind of marker. the slide in part had a bend to save the need for a raiser plate. I also wondered if receiver tube could reduce ground clearance, perhaps a better design though with more work needed would come out nearer number plate. the view down van was great, I found the offside of car was in line with outside of caravan. quite tempted again now as have found better way to get caravan into back yard, but does involve more reversing. am also experimenting with an old motor mover I picked up.

The receiver is up against the tie down loop so doesn't reduce ground clearance. I saw a motor mover while I was away last week that you wound in on a button. But then he started to leave site without removing it |
