I need to tow a lot of different trailers with varying heights with my 4x4, and this drop plate makes it much easier. Also, if a trailer hitch becomes stuck on, it's easy enough to simply separate the two parts of the drop plate, releasing the pressure on the hitch - much better than lifting the draw bar up with a tractor or jacking it up! It's good, solid steel with good welds, and I'm sure that it will last and last. The only downside is the very poor foldover securing pins that are supposed to lock the horizontal rods into position, they are simply not up to the job. One of them fell out whilst towing and I was lucky not to lose thte horizontal rod. Easily and cheaply fixed by getting some proper ones.

Great Product well Made and a very good delivery time, I have to say I wouldn't of been able to get it locally as quick. It's in everyday use as we are a Breakdown Recovery Company and often transport vehicles with the trailer behind the trucks.

Product is very sturdily built, thogh rather heavy. It is easy to adjust and copes well with loads.

Seems very strong and well made. Packaging could have been better as black powder coating slightly damaged on corners where the heavy item had punched through the single layer cardboard and presumably scuffed against delivery van floor.
