QF Exceed tow bar

[RobMichelle]

I’m starting to set up my newly acquired 21qf sport for towing. The daughter in law had a tow bar fitted by local Mitsubishi dealer after she purchased car, but no brake controller fitted. So reading above I can purchase the red arc tow pro elite, then a wiring loom from dealer to connect it all up, is that easier than running a blue & red down chassis to plug?
also notice the tongue mounting hole is shorter than the hitch provided with wdh, is it ok to cut off probably 15mm of the end of the shank to fit properly in receiver ?

How do you do that?

I have done exactly that with my WDH and so have many others. It make no difference to the structural integrity of the hitch.

Thankyou TimTim 👍

Thankyou TimTim 👍

Actually that reminds me because with my Hayman Reese Hitch I only cut off about 15 mm to enable access to the first pin hole. I can actually cut more off to use the next hole along.

I should of said it makes no difference to the structural integrity of the shank either .

Yes il probly cut shank down so it’s closer to car 👍
