Description
Overview:
This 2in (52 mm) 4‐hole towball drop plate (MPN 763 380) is a zinc plated steel adaptor used to lower the height of a standard two‐bolt flange towball by approximately 2 inches (about 52 mm). It mounts between the flange towbar and the towball, providing an alternative fixing position to help align the coupling height with trailers or implements that sit higher or lower than the towing vehicle's standard setup. The zinc plated finish offers basic corrosion resistance suited to typical workshop, yard and agricultural environments. Designed for the common UK flange towbar pattern, it is straightforward to install using appropriate fixings for the towbar and towball in use. As stated by the manufacturer, this drop plate is marketed for agricultural and off‐road applications only and is not listed as a tested or approved accessory for on‐road use.
Key Features:
- Provides an approximate 2in (52 mm) towing height drop from the standard flange position
- 4‐hole configuration for relocating a two‐bolt flange towball on a flange towbar
- Steel construction with zinc plated finish for corrosion resistance
- Fits the common UK two‐bolt flange towbar and flange‐type towball pattern
- Simple to install between the towbar face and the towball using suitable fixings
- Marketed for agricultural and off‐road use only; not supplied as a tested/approved on‐road accessory by the manufacturer
Typical Applications:
Used on vehicles with a two‐bolt flange towbar where the towball needs to be lowered to level trailers or implements. Typical use includes farm trailers, plant and machinery carriers, site trailers, grounds care equipment and off‐road towing setups in yards or on private land. Suits towing arrangements that use flange‐type towballs and couplings where a small vertical adjustment (about 52 mm / 2 in) improves drawbar alignment.
