Receiver hitch.

Have a sankey trailer. Need a receiver hitch to accept a modified drop hitch like this.

They are like hens teeth I'm afraid. I just sold mine with an RLD NATO hitch to professorpool, but he also bought the trailer and roof tent to go with it!!!

You could try here:

If this is the 2" version and still available, it's a bloody good price!

The few I can find seem to all be around the £330-350 mark. How can such a small piece of metal, that doesn't really do anything special be so expensive!

Think I might switch back to D1's Laughing Laughing
