Petr usually Mk2* carriers had casted horns with them , most MK1* carriers had welded retrofitted ones , maybe it has something to do that they where already in the UK , my mk1* had the welded ones on as well.

I know that LWD had some parts, but looks like he is out of stock now. We also have the C15TA to use as a pattern. But I agree, I would like to see the Stacey hook on the MKI*

Thanks for the lead Maurice!
I recently saw a picture of a Mk1 with the towing hitch. I think it wa here on MLU but have to search again. ( i will in a bit) It had the Battery Box of the Mk1 along with the extra POW racks called the "Desert Stowage" that my carrier (and Bruce Parker's) has. I am missing all the tool stowage on that back plate, so thought to make up the towing and place it along with the tool holders. It looks like a welded Hitch support "horns" may be the most correct way to go. Now... does anyone have a carrier with this type of towing support? If so, Can I offer you somethign to take some pics? Measurements would be nice, but since it probably came to the Canadian Stacey hitch, I can probably use those measurements. |
