[Wanted] Tow bar extension

Hi Im still on the saga of fitting a dixon bate towbar with extension sliding bracket for fitting bike rack to clear spare wheel and also to use for towing .Ive been recommended on here to buy the Nakatanenga stuff which you can order from 4x4 overland .But due to brexit its weeks away .Ive ordered as a stop gap the tow bar extender from the same company .This is now been held up for weeks .Any uk company's stock this stuff .Last question I have found a site selling 150mm or 200mm Dixon bate adjustable coupling .Has anyone fitted the 200mm ? Just wondering if it will sit too low on my 2013 Puma. A lot of hassle to be able to carry heavy mountain bikes .

Do you know how much extra distance you need? A common solution is to find a second hand Discovery 2 tow ball, which has an extended neck like this:

There's one on eBay at the moment, albeit complete with an entire tow bar:

Alternatively, a tow bar extender from a 130 will achieve what you need, although they're probably more difficult to find. Darren
