    Don't think so. The chassis on the D2 is somewhat longer so I'm guessing the holes won't line up.
    I would imagine that there is not a great market for D2 ones from the wreckers as they came standard. Might be worth a few calls. Would be a lot less trouble to fit and your insurance will not be void

    Not all D2s had them as standard & HR sold one for those made without one in the early 00's.

    HR also made a heavy duty version to replace the genuine towbar.

    I think you will also find the D1 bar has the low D1 ball weight as well.

    The D2 uses larger bolts all round. The holes would be a close fit between the two, but I don't think it would be good practice to open them up to suit.


    They don't fit the other way as well - D2 towbar into a Series 1 Disco
