Possibly but what would you do for recovery.
Why don't you start a thread asking about tow bar options etc,, just try searching before you do as there was a thread not that long ago.

Ah dullbird, getting in to murky territory with rear recovery. Any of the tow bars are rated at max 3.5 tonnes and even moderate snatching can generate an equivalent load of ~8 tonnes or more. Would like to use jate rings in the rear but now that the chasis at the lashing-eye attachment point is not reinforced then this is not an option. Do you know if any one has strengthened their chasis at this point to enable safe use of jate rings? I image it is a relatively simple welding job for some one who knows how to do such structural welds.

Karl it's an ARB bar. Having said that I chose their bar because it is compatible with the long range tank. They have come back to me and said that the bar is incorrect as not compatible and to wait while they sort correct bar. Still waiting. Don't like my chances. Still when I go for the long range tank they will have to sort it.

Dullbird thanks for sorting my last photos, sorry they turned out so crap, there are a few things there that I quite like, like the rear and side working lights.

Karl, the 08MY 110 was only available with a LR bar much like the Hayman Reece made in Australia for the Puma 110.

LR would not bring in the drop plate assembly available to the UK. Now that the range has increased with the 90 and other variations of the 110 I suspect the available UK accessories has as well.

The towbar part number for the 90 is different to the 110 (LR006310) in the UK so I suspect that the LR Aust towbar 110 wont fit and nor will the ARB unit fit unless ARB has previously made one for the 90 when it was last imported back in about 2003-2005.
