WTD: Dixon Bate 2 Pin Slider

A bit of a long shot, but does anybody have a spare 2 pin slider that they'd like to part with before I resort to buying new? Darren

No, but if you find a place stocking thme let me know - the Reading stockist reckons they don't exist

Tell the Reading stockist that the 2 pin slider part number is 202117!

PS just asked one of our contacts if he has any under his work bench

I bought a new one from our local towing supplier. Not cheap, but not wildly expensive. They had them on the shelf so they can't be that rare...

Oh, and sorry Darren, it's not spare I am afraid. [:O|===|O:] 2001 110 TD5 Doublecab

They're definitely available - Dixon Bate show them on their website

Best price for new that I've found is from DLS via eBay HERE Darren

Thanks Boode. I'd found them earlier but just had another look and realised that they offer free delivery for orders over £50. So, with the addition of a few other bits, it's a relative bargain and an order has been duly placed

I bought one off the shelf from Tow-B-Fabs in Hemel Hempstead a couple of months ago

Beware you will also need to purchase the second pin extra.

I use it for my ALKO towball for the caravan, much better and quieter than the single pin one I use for other uses

Yeah, I've already got a second pin. An Alko tow ball for caravan towing is exactly what I want it for too. We've recently been using my wifes Freelander to tow our 'van, which it does very well, but it's just not as big as her previous DII. As we want to take bikes and other gubbins with us on hols in August, we're going to use my 110 instead. Darren

Do these double pin sliders fit the "standard" DB towing frame?
