Tow bar photograph request

[Lonesome715]

I am always coming across parts and “gotta-haves” over here. Right now I am looking for tow bar accessories I would need to flat tow a deuce. Can some one post detailed photographs of these pieces so I will recognize them if I see them. I think I found a brand new adapter in the scrap yard. I already sent that home. But I still need all the other pieces. I found several tow bars in the scrap yard as well. But they are far too costly to send home. None of them have the ends on them so I do not know what to look for. If you could, I would also appreciate a photograph of a complete assembly laid out so I can see how it all goes together. I know there are different configurations so I want to make sure I only mail home what need. It is getting very expensive to mail home all the stuff I find over here.

Thanks for the link. There is some cool stuff on there. The only problem is I cannot make out the details on the photograph.

If there is a scrap yard there, there is a maintaince unit near by.. Im sure they can help you.

And CID too!

Normally I would agree. Lord knows it is common to locate me in one of thier areas just talking to them. But I work nights now and I am unable to get with any one on this right now.

You know that really pisses me off. I looked for s thread where this question was already asked. I am never able to locate this stuff. That is really annoying. I appreciate the link. It does have everything I am looking for.


I agree with playing with CID. I my self have had to investigate people for dumpster diving. But they were TCN's.

You need to understand the risk and how it could affect the rest of your life. Wayne

That is why I stick to the salvage and scrap yards. Even though my clearance allows me to access a lot of places, I stay where I know no one will care.

Here are three more of the medium with the 3/4 & 1 inch combination feet.
Hope this helps. Discaimer, the pins shown are not military but purchased at a tractor supply place for 3 point hitches. My pins were badly corrosed and these are just as storng but not quite as "pretty".
This is the older bar without the MWO upgrade collars installed.

Great photographs, thanks. What does MWO mean?

Now I know the words, but I do not know what it means.

This is a good link, thanks for point it out.

However, is that the going price for a complete tow bar?
