What towbar/towball hitch attachment did you receive with you Grenadier?

I have seen a number of different variations on the cars, including 50mm square tongue and ball that I saw yeaterday and assume being the most common here in Australia is what we'd see.

However today I they have attached the pictured to mine. I assume this is actually what the website said and I never thought about it.

But as mention I have seen different one and wondering is this a random thing? Have they changed what they are using overtime? Or ate folks just buying their own? And can we even use a more typical style after market

When I orderd like many, there was no "towball" hitch options, just the general tow option

We are getting the Hayman Reece style 2" slide in hitch.
Despite mention of 1 7/8" in some places.
I am getting one on the front and the back of mine.

Be aware that the Brink branded 2 inch tow hitch we get in Australia has a 25mm (1") diameter pin on the ball. Standard for Aus is 22mm. If you plan on replacing the supplied ball with something like a D035 pin then make sure you get a 1 inch pin. Cruisemaster sell them as an accessory. Another little undisclosed surprise after delivery.

It seems they've shipped yours with a UK/Euro spec "50mm towball & jaw"

I'm assuming that is not normal. Is that something should be raised.

Is that standard, or is it Grenadier OEM parts order

Well it wasn't an option in the original Oz price list.

I'd hope your agent will pick it up at PDI, and then I guess it's up to you whether you see this as advantageous to you and want to keep it; or not what you ordered and get it changed...

The agent wont realise, they are clueless at best.
