Strange drawbar


robin craig

Question

Thsi drawbar has been on ebay recently and ended without bids. I had no clue what it was for, as the holes at the end were a strange dimension.

 

Today by complete fluke I think I have solved what it is from, and it comes from a non powered piece of kit before you answer.

 

Before I say what I think it is from does anyone know?

 

And dont use the picture name as a clue, thats cheating.

Mr Retriever is correct,

 

Its is used on the FV FV 2842 Trailer 3 Ton medium Girder Bridge trailer across the front and is clipped to the bridge for pushing it out I believe.

 

The AFV ones have a different size hole and are a slightly different shape.

Yes indeed, pins into the recievers on the bankseat beam, then your vehicle of choice is connected. Also capable of pulling you into the gap when you are directed to boom the bridge too far as i discovered to my cost. No amount of wheel spinning in reverse was enough to hold it :shocked: That was a long day !!!!
