Frequently asked questions

What does the DA2196 towing bracket lock pin do?
The DA2196 lock pin secures the vertical slider of a Dixon Bate adjustable-height tow bracket at the chosen height. It passes through the bracket body and the slider plate and is held in place by R-clips, stopping the slider from moving once the coupling height is set.
How many lock pins do I need?
Typically one lock pin secures the slider on a Dixon Bate adjustable bracket. It's usually retained by a pair of R-clips, one at each end. Check your existing setup, since the pin can wear or bend over time and is often replaced along with the clips.
Will this pin fit my Dixon Bate tow bracket?
This pin fits Dixon Bate vertical sliding and adjustable-height tow brackets used across the Land Rover range, including Series 2/3, Defender, Discovery 1 to 4 and Range Rover. It only suits the Dixon Bate adjustable slider design, so confirm your bracket type before ordering.
