Keithl Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Hi Kimbo, As no-one else has answered I'll give my assistance and also give your thread a bump. Is your MH a Van Conversion or a Coachbuilt as this will determine if you can fit an 'off the shelf' towbar or not? If a van conversion then try phoning your local towing centres and see if any of them can help, but as you say you can only find towbars for post 1994 models you may not have much luck. I did a Google search and could not find anything either. Failing the above, or if a Coachbuilt, then your only option will be to get a purpose made towbar from the likes of TowTal at Stoke-on-Trent or look at the ads in MMM for other manufacturers. For this option you are probably looking at upwards of £300 though. Final thought, why do you not get a bike carrier from Fiamma or Omnistor fitted directly to you MH? HTH, Keith.

rupert123 Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 You would get more replies if you asked over in motor home matters, I only saw by accident. It is very unlikely you will buy a ready made towbar for a motorhome. I had mine made by Coastel Towbars in Rhyl. Their is bound to be someone in your area who will make one for you.

soulman Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 Hi Keith, many thanks for the info. Will check out your suggestions. My camper is one of the first Murvi's no elevated roof or alterations to the body. Just fitted on the inside but suits my needs brilliantly and it goes in the garage. Regards Kim ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soulman Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 Cheers Rupert. I never knew you could get them made. Will be checking this out also. Many thanks for taking time to reply. Regards kimbo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
