Nothing bolts through the bumper bolts, bar the bumper,, You have "lashing eyes" bolted through the chassis rails,, but would not want to tow the vehicle with these Presume you meant a rear towbar ??

Penguin, by tow hook do you mean the tow ball at rear of the vehicle for towing trailer/caravans.
If so the hardware is simple bolt onto rear cross member and onto the chassis. Electrics? Depends if you want 7 pin or 12/13 pin for towing modern caravans. If 7 pin then it is simple plug and play IIRC. 12/13 pin slightly more awkward Or do you mean recovery eyes to pull your vehicle out when it is stuck in the mud? Brendan |

Who is selling the 110? If a 4x4 dealership you might just get them to fit one as part of the deal. It certainly should not be a deal breaker. When we got Hazel's replacement 90 we just told the garage to fit one as part of the deal. Brendan |

It's indeed via a dealership, and we will for-sure try to get this in the deal 28/02 - Loss of a good friend... In a time of chimpanzees, I was a penguin. |

OK you are buying a second hand 110, so if you are not insisting on everything being brand new, the dealership might have a second hand/take off tow bar equipment in their store somewhere.
Well worth asking. Good luck. Brendan |
