hello

On my TD5 Disco, I have the bog standard landrover hitch. The problem is it catches on any bump I go over, I rarely use it but I want a hitch on the vehicle for emergancys.

Are there any other hitches on the market, and if so how are they fitted?

Anyone any ideas??

Many thnks

When you say emergencies, do you mean recovering the vehicle?  If so, fit JATE rings for a few quid, and stick the tow bar in the garage until you need it.

Scorpion racing sell a neat solution to the problem.

A square box monuted to the chassis, into which any one of number of attachments can be slid in and a pin holds them in place.

Its in the towing and recovery section.

Yeah . . . a few solutions out there at the mo . . . . . depends how far you want to go.


I went for Southdown and their drop hitch, then got another couple of plates made up to suit recovery and nato hitch for the Sankey trailer. Got option of three hitches, all on pins . . . .  quick to swap . . . . . and they clear most things.

This hitch from Southdowns, does it come with the tank guard? and is there a place for the electric socket to be fitted

It looks alot better that the on from Scorpion racing


Many thanks
