I don't have one of those, I do have an Alko version that can be adjusted easily by undoing 2 bolts and moving the ball up or down by up to 6 inches. I have kept it, as it was for a lower towbar on a 4wd I used to have. It was only $120 in 2007.

Thanks Bicyclecamper but I don't want to undo 2 bolts every time that I change it. This model has just 1 slide-out bolt. The $'s are not the issue, the quality and ease of use are more important to me. Also, having a 50 & 70 ml ball is important as I tow more than one trailer.

We use an Andersen quick hitch which is rated at 4500 kg. It has a model which has two tow balls like the Fastway.

That looks quick and easy,Derek,and to me it looks stronger than the other example.Also has two holes in the shank so easy to get the unit as close as possible to the car,thus minimising towball overhang,which is critical.Cheers
