ABSTRACT:
This invention provides a dual purpose towing attachment capable of accepting tow-bars with eye type fittings and also incorporating a ball to which a socket type fitting can be attached. The attachment has a pair of parallel flat lugs or plates between which a towing eye may be introduced, the upper plate being surmounted by a spherical boss to which a socket type trailer attachment may be fitted, the boss having a through bore which accepts a pin spanning the two parallel lugs for engagement with eye type tow-bars. The upper surface of the pin has a rounded head which when the pin is fully inserted is flush with the spherical surface of the towing boss, so that the towing attachment has an overall compact size.
