What about smashing a screwdriver into the lock?

Could work.
You need to rotate the tumbler, before you can pull and rotate the green handle, so anything that achieves that is what you need to do.
Have a heavy hammer ready because once you have rotated* the green handle you may need some heavy blows on the casting to get it to drop away from the chassis.
* there are arrows on the green handle telling you the direction of rotation
GOT IT!!! :D:D:D
Big thanks to Lotz-A-Landies :beer:. Your method worked a charm. The hitch itself and the mechanism were straight but because the green handle was all bent it wouldn't turn properly. A lot of shaking and force on the handle and it finally 'clicked' and the hitch slid out easily.
Thanks a lot!!

All Four X 4 in Kotara were wrecking a D4 this month. They may still have the tow hitch.
I have just put a Mitch Hitch on so have my old D3 towbar if you are interested. Happy to post it to you. Send a PM if you want it.
Take a quick look at the difference between a D3 hitch and the D4 one!

The D3 type is like a plough or keel sitting below the rear end any wonder they get damaged.
It makes you wonder. How can a group of people create a car thats so clever and well engineered and then design a tow hitch like that?

I think that is a first for man in the shorter option being better than the longer option. I cannot think of another contender!
Big thanks to Narranga (Dale) not only did he go through the hassle of packing and shipping a D3 hitch to me, he did it for FREE! What a guy!
Dale, if/when i see you, I owe you some of these :beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer:
