Early Brinks towbar key??

Goldrover · 29th April 2017, 11:01

Hi, I'm a new member and would like your help/advice.

It's a long shot but does anyone have a key to fit the early Brinks detachable

towbar -possibly original fit-. I understand it is a brass key that is longer than

the later version -which has a lock number on it which you can get by

ordering from Brink.

Off to Eden meet tomorrow if anyone requires a peek at the lock.

Thanks in advance.

Is this an OEM towbar?

I think so , it has a chrome locking mechanism on the side of the towbar where the lock is

and 2 levers marked 1 an 2 which i presume you can move when the lock is removed.

Sounds like an original One.
I had the same issue when I got mine no key but I removed the key lock & the towbar locks on & off no problem.

I did a how to but the pics are gone.
