I think what he wants to do is change between the 2 hitches. So having 2 sliders he can.

Yup, thats it.
Also, no room on rear crossmember as adjustable towing bracket takes up all the room.

Not undoing that. so slider it is.

Litch:
If you have a Dixon Bate adjustable height hitch fitted then just buy an additional slider (less than £20 brand new) and bolt the NATO hitch to that, DB make the NATO hitch and the hole pattern on the slider is spot on.
I carry 3-sliders on mine C/W NATO, ball & pin hitches.

Needalanny:
Litch,

That is exactly what i want to do, but i need to know where i can buy the sliders with the holes as is needed for the NATO hitch.
You mention Dixon Bate. I was on their site earlier on today, and found the sliders with dimensions, but the holes did not line up. I suppose emailing them or phoning to find out would be a good idea.

I got told the sliders are £35 from DB.
I was hoping to get one slightly less than that, but will pay it if i have to.

KevinStorr:
Just what I have planned I have 2 sliders so just got to get a NATO hitch.

Try Craddocks I think they usually have them in stock. Not listed on the web page but I am sure I have seen them on the self for about £20.
