Hi All

Looking for a hitchlock for a new ST8, I've attached a few photos as it's an absolute minefield trying to find one for this design. 

Having a look about I THINK I've found a potential candidate but can anyone confirm/ has a suggestion for one?

For Ifor Williams but will fit some Al-KO also. Need it it fit when its uncoupled & coupled. ?

 

Thanks!

Just a thought, couldn't the would be thief just release the retaining clip of your tow ball, use a short strop to "hitch up" and be off with the machine even if fitted with the lock? If so, it'd be worth changing hitch too :) 

Bloody hell didn't even think about that ?, the chippers are primarily towed on another vehicle but I think I'll get the hitch changed on this one!!

Yeah I'll contact Forst, probably for the best! Company I work for has just brought it, 0 hours straight off the line. We had one on Demo and it was a weapon, have high hopes for it!
