hitch

Anyone figure out how to hook up the wireing for the tow hitch if it was not an installed option. I saw the wires and a plug in the right rear quarter panel so it just has to be figuring out the right ones. I am also thinking about just making a small battery box with switches and hook the...

In my car, the steel cable that secures the trailer hitch bolt is rusty. My trailer hitch is a combination of a ball hitch and a claw hitch with a push through bolt. This bolt is secured against theft with a steel cable. The steel cable is covered by a transparent silicone tube (I suspect it is...

I have learned that the hole for the spigot in my tow hitch is 1 inch diameter rather than 7/8 inch. Not a major issue but it means sourcing a USA 1 inch spigot version of the DO35 hitch that I will be fitting. The caravan supplier says they aren’t authorised to do this however I can buy one as...

I just picked up my Trialmaster last week in Dallas and am very excited. I did t not have the factory winch installed for a number of reasons but I also missed the option to install the front receiver hitch. So a coue questions: Has anyone installed the front receiver after delivery? Any idea...

In the handbook it is listed as 771 lbs (350KG) but there is a label on the underside of the hitch plate that states ~600 (273KG). Given the GVW and GTW are both 3500 KG (7716 lbs), using the rule of thumb of 10-15% you'd expect the TW to be at least the value in the book. For clarity this is...

I unfortunately didn't order the tow hitch as a factor mount and need the female portion of one for my bike rack. Is anyone else in a similar situation? I'm planning to manufacture a hitch and would be happy to make a couple, if there is interest.

After getting my hitch installed, I noticed there is a big lip underneath that may get caught on ledge/rocks on departures. Not sure that is a valid concern yet. But here is a possible mitigation. Has anyone installed one of these on their Gren? I have no idea if this will clear the lip as...

I just picked up my Grenadier this week. I did not order the towing package - I’m not looking to tow, but I do need to get a standard receiver installed for a 2” Thule 2-bike rack (it releases and pivots down and out of the way, and I HOPE will clear the spare wheel when in the up position)...

Has anyone had the Trailer Hitch installed on a unit that had the Hitch removed and delivered without to be put back on later after "software updates ".

I will be mounting the towing receiver to my truck and would like to know the correct torque spec for the four bolts that mount it to the truck…

What options are available in the UK for a removable front mounted tow hitch and removeable front mounted winch? I've seen some aftermarket options online but wondered if any are suitable for use in the UK given different regulations?

Can someone post a picture of the trailer hitch that was removed before deliver? Specifically, I’m trying to figure out if the entire hitch was removed or just the part that holds the receiver. Thank you.

I've noted that some people have had issues with other tow hitch tongues not fitting the Grenadier receiver. I have a collection of tongues and was rather surprised that only 3 of the 4 fitted the rear receiver while all fitted the front one. One tongue (hayman reece) was able to partially slide...

@FlyingTexan @Lord Ripon USA Strange but I'm pretty certain I checked the "hitch" option but when it arrived at the dealer there was no hitch. All our trucks have hitches, what I thought was my order summary has the hitch checked off. Dealer says it can be added for $1000 (800 parts and 200...

Can anyone provide a price for the tow plate below?

The Grenadier easily accepts the standard Old Defender dropper hitch available through Amazon and others @ £60.00. I have anchored the hitch onto the Grenadier using six HT bolts, utilising the four bolt holes for the winch-mount. No modification needed. Spacers extend the hitch so it protrudes...

I'm bit unsure why but my order doesn't have the towing hitch. I'm pretty shocked by that I must have accidentally not selected it when running other options. Anyone do the same and add one after the fact? I guess so long as the framing is there it's not that hard. Just wire a harness into the...

Hi I wish to attach the same setup as this picture to my Grenadier. I have this setup on two old defenders I already own. The problem is that for the Nato hitch to be at the correct height for the military trailer I own the Dixon Bate bracket needs to be mounted up high and as a result...

I noticed in a picture that one of the North American production vehicles landed at port of Georgia had a UK-style hitch receiver. I have not seen any late model us-spec vehicles with a 2” receiver that also has a face plate for bolt-on applications here in the states. I guess this is a plus...

Can your dealer add the Tow Hitch and electronics later on if it was not ordered with one ? I Have a Vin, dealer sent me the spec sheet, but the Tow Hitch is not on the dealer spec that they sent me. It is on my ordered spec sheet online from Ineos's website. Thanks in advance for the help!

In the US, will owners be allowed to use a weight distribution hitch, or will that void warranty? Thanks!!

How will the US Class III NAS Tow Hitch be attached to the frame? Is there a photgraph or drawing ? Is there an electrical connection to which an after market hitch wiring harness can be connected?

The US configurator has only one option for the tow hitch, a Class III 2" NAS Tow Hitch and Electrics for $800 (seem like a lot). Am not sure what I am getting or how it is mounted to the frame. If any one has a photograph I would apprectaie it. I will not likley be towing with my IG, but am...

The EU configurators (eg Austrian) give two tow bar options (UK has only one): 1. "Fixed" tow bar (ETC) "FESTE „ANHÄNGERKUPPLUNG UND ELEKTRIK“ Feste Anhängerkupplung mit Elektrosatz. Die feste Anhängerkupplung lässt sich über drei verschiedene Montagepositionen der vertikalen Zugvorrichtung in...
