    I think the 'Real world' video is the best approach - nobody will be watching this because they installed and removed the hook without a problem. Keep up the good work!

    I also had debris in that nook that was stopping the hitch from locking into place properly. Your video helped me figure out what was wrong. Thanks!

    Very nicely done, many thanks for sharing the truth! I think that was a very important thing to cover as the noise from spring sounded pretty solid, so if you have done this before you could
    have found yourself dropping some thing even worse than a sausage!

    Very helpful video. What about the wiring loom to connect the lights for the trailer?

    a friend recently lost a 3 ton trailer because the hitch fell out... Nobody was hurt, but I wonder if he had watched this maybe the problem would have been avoided all together?
    EXCELLENT video. Should be compulsory viewing for anybody planning to tow with one of these...

      Hi - thanks for the comments - its not as clear as it could be that the hitch is fully connected.

    Super video, way more education with the real world example.

    Good to see the fail, great video. So important to get that solid reassuring click and see the red band disappear.

    The first Discovery didn't have the electrics in. Do you have to fit the electrics after or at point of purchase, or are they in as standard?

    Hey guys. Thanks for this. Mine also failed about 4 times before I got it fixed in properly! Hate to think what might have happened if I’d have just left it!

    Great demonstration to get yourself a permanent tow bal instead.

    • @L663
      @L663  6 років тому

      Yes we donhave a permanent tow bar on our Disco 4 that we use for towing - you will see it at the end of the video - but as you see it still has a removable part as the main part of the design..

  • @bendude6748
    @bendude6748 3 роки тому

    Do these range rovers usually come with the tow hook inside the boot or would it be something you’d have to purchase?

    • @L663
      @L663  3 роки тому +1

      They are expensive so it would be your lucky day to find one in the boot !

    Are they 3.5 tonne towing capacity? Manual seems to say so but see a few funny things online about them. Great videos too on the discos

    • @L663
      @L663  4 роки тому

      Yes these are 3.5T rated... i you are doing a lot of towing you can get the heavy duty one that have the etra supports.

    Do you still have to install the electrics to hook up lights for your trailer your connecting to?

    Does any company offer a reasonably priced hidden hitch version for the L494? I know, I know, nothing Land Rover is ever reasonable but hitches are pretty mainstream so wasn't sure if you knew of a version that is similar to an aftermarket version but hidden. Thanks!

    Mine does not have a removable panel 😁. Any idea?

    • @L663
      @L663  3 роки тому +1

      So there is no removable panel in your rear bumper - this seems a little strange... can you clarify ? share a picture ( link ) ?

  • @jkody
    @jkody 2 місяці тому

    I was going to get one but they're like $500! Then the way the lock will interferer with the safety chains and just overall looks like a really poor design. I wouldn't feel comfortable towing much of anything with that hitch. but thank you for the video.

    Hi sorry to be off topic but could you make a video about how to install a hybrid tv tuner at the boot with all the cables and how to install video in motion adaptor or bypass cable? This is for the L322 Range rovers 2002-2005. Preserving the original Satnav unit. Like all your videos very informative. Cheers

      Hi - we have done a couple of these type of things but we are not really that up on this stuff - if you send me a link to the item we could buy one and give it a go...

    Too much complication for aesthetic. The American way is far superior. Sometimes simplicity is better for safety.
