Does anyone recognise this bike rack and can tell me the maker?

I bought it years ago for my Disco TDi300 and I have a horrid

feeling
the bit that stays on the vehicle went with the disco when I sold

it.
I now want to fit it on my TD5 disco so need a new 'fixed bit'.

I
think it is a relatively simple plate that goes behind the towing
bracket, with a square peg sticking out for the bit in the photos

to
slip on and be locked, but the square peg had a funny crank in it

so
that the tow ball or eye can still be used. I'd make one up but

all my
welding and cutting kit is packed ready for a house move.

'Fraid not but may I suggest - unless you have already done so - a

Sorry Andrew

It's been a long day (early start). Couldn't think why your name

was
familiar :-(

How did you get on with Quadratech.

Richard,

I ended up using Marc Draper in Westerham, and he collected and
returned the disco for the clutch change. £380 using genuine parts as
opposed to Landrover main dealer quoting £1100 ! Jobs done and we're
mobile again.
