This isn't just a gripe about the bar but more a warning to be aware that if you do buy one of these you'll need to do some work to make it fit
Though very cheap the bracket appears strong although rather roughly made. I guess you get what you pay for as their jig must have the pick up points but not much indication of the clearances needed to get them to line up :bang:
In short it needs about 15-30 minutes with an angle grinder to trim back some over length tabs and increase the cutout on the underfloor brackets and some welting with a hammer to get the tabs and brackets to line up. Once its on you can't really fault it and I'm really looking forward to reversing into something with it.
I didn't just choose this because I'm a cheap skate but mainly because it has a necked hitch which can be removed with 5 mins spanner work if you fed up banging your shins
