I need to know if anyone makes a tow bar for 914. Several years ago, H&H Specialties Inc. manufactured such device.

Any information will be highly appreciated.

Thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/boldblue.gif)

Can't say I know of a manufacturer, however several have made their own. I have one, and I really like it. It bolts on to the front of the A-arms.

Do a search on the board. There was a thread several months ago. I believe Howard had a sweet set up where the mounting brackets were hidden behind the
fog light/ horn grills.

I've got a H & H bar had it for 7 yrs.
Here's a picture from our move to OK from NJ.

I'll be using it again for the FFC.

That was "Death wish" Bronson, a great dog moved on about three years ago.

The last picture you can see the wiring that goes back to the tail lights. I unhook the battery plug them in and brake/turn and park light work off tow.

Really easy and cheap. These are usually available on eBay for $50 to $100 plus shipping. Due to a shipping screwup, I ended up with 2, so let me know if you want one.
