Just sorted out the receiver hitch on the back of my Land Cruiser as it was great having one on the back of the Patrol.

I wish that I'd of thought of it when you send the Patrol was going... I could of paid you some money for the Hitch you had on that!

To put your mind at rest, the tow bar would not come off my Patrol, when I tried to remove it I knew that the bolts would snap before coming out so I had to cut the tow ball plate off and weld on the receiver tube with the tow bar on the Patrol.
Land Cruiser tow bar is in 3 parts so I just made a plate the same as the centre part and welded the receiver tube to that, also made easier by the fact I could remove the old one from the car.

Kind regards

Russell.
