tow bar mounted box.

Do any of you use a back box that mounts on a tow bar? looking for storage ideas for wet kit.

Cheers

Hi Baz


We have got a box that fits on the towbar, we got it from here [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] we find it to be very useful for storage.

There is also a video on the website showing you how to fix to the tow ball, it is really easy.

Sorry I failed to take photos of the bracket I made, so I will try to describe it.
A substantial (5mm mild steel) V shaped plate is drilled and sandwiched between tow ball and tow bar.It measures perhaps 40 cm across the top. A 50mm  angle iron (bumper width) is welded across the top of the plate at bumper top height. Simply drill the angle iron to fit box(es). My boxes were from B & Q about £30 each.By chance they are perfectly shaped to dip below the number plate.It's all carefully measured so the boxes sit comfortably half on the bumper and half (ish) on the angle iron.All the mucky stuff  - walking boots, chemicals,ramps,hook up cable,water hoses , tools etc comfortably fit inside and a bonus is, the tow ball is still available. Whole job about £90 including padlocks.
Hope this makes sense _ this is the only photo I can find.
This will not suit everybody, as the rear doors cannot be opened without removing the boxes (2 minute job if you weld captive nuts under the angle iron.

Just seen what a rubbish photo I posted. I now find I can edit photos on this Kindle thing, so here is another attempt to make sense of my garbled...
