Hey sorry for the late reply. Not got the towbar fitted yet and its not in the house at mo, will take some pictures of it and post them as soon as i can.
Its different from the one in the pics. It has to big angle iron brackets that mount between the anti roll bar and the body then the main horizontal 'beam' mounts to these and also to the closest two mounting holes of the towing iron which is removed.
Looks the business! Just getting round to do it. Done my back in recently so not been able to ride my bikes hence no urgency in getting mobile just yet.

Anyone here ever have a tyre blow out whilst at 55mph?? Isn't very fun when one goes POP! offtopic: just last week, driving home northbound HWY 280 near Los Altos and the full size GM van that was cruising along side me had a blowout on the other rear tire. Sounded like someone firing a .45 at the back of my car and was quite a shock. The tire literally exploded and I could see shrapnel all over the road. I was in my convertible w/ the top down so it was LOUD. The driver handled it well, and said he didn't want any help with the situation. ontopic: When I first read "towbar" I thought someone was referring to a front tow bar as in to tow the Justy behind another vehicle. My '91 had just that sort of thing attached to the front of the car and it appeared to cause a little too much stress to the front of the car. It also GREATYLY affected the way the car drove having this large steel bar bolted underneath the bumper...

I think this should be referenced when mention is made of engine swaps or other modifications that add weight to the front of a Justy. Your experiences proves that additional weight to a J10/J12 nose is significant.
