    Mitch Hitch

    Hi All

    Could anyone please confirm if a Mitch Hitch for Discovery 3 will fit onto a Discovery 4.

    Cheers

    Somebody posted the other day they had to use a die grinder on their D4 to make the hitch fit.Unsure if it was a new hitch or a D3 item.
    How much is a new hitch tagged to suit a D4 compared to the advertised D3 $300 hitch????
    Its sometning I need to buy into the future when I complete my camper trailer.
    Thanks

    Having put mine on last weekend the die grinder is needed for both D3 & D4 - even though the instructions say D4 only.

    AFAIK there is only one hitch and it fits both D3 & D4.

    I bought a Mitch hitch recently and from memory the hitch will fit a either. Mine is for a RRS. There is a hitch that looks like the Mitch hitch but it's a copy, a guy who used to make it for mitchell bros has used the design from memory, so do the right thing and buy of the designer not a thief.

    Hi Andrew

    Aaron from Mitch Hitch just replied and he informed me that they do fit.
    He will have stock in 2 weeks and they are $730.00 new.

    I have just bought the one for sale on here.

    Cheers

    IF it was made in China, I'd agree. But its Australian, and I call that free enterprise and just healthy competition. And there are other ones esdies as well ...

    I think $730 plus shipping - is theft too!!! The reason I am interested, is when I go off road with the tow bar on (the land rover one circa 2015) I don't want to gouge the tracks I might go over. For $730, I might get the spade out and fill in a gouge or two ...

    I took mine from my D3 and it fitted without any modification to my D4 - this was 5 years ago so unless the design has changed, it should be fine

    Why does it matter if its made in China. Ripping some ones design off is still ripping some ones design off regardless of where its built. Its not healthy at all to steal intellectual property, it slows progress and development, why be the bugger to put time and effort into RnD if a third party can replicate your product with out the over heads ???
