ABSTRACT:
A tow device is mounted between two structural members of a vehicle which share in absorbing a moment of force transmitted through the device when the vehicle is towed. One of the structural members is substantially normal to the axis about which the moment of force acts to provide resistance to structural deformation, while permitting the device to project below the vehicle body proper to prevent accidental impacting of the vehicle underbody on the road.
