Bought one from Repco once but when I got it home it didn't fit the towbar (bumper was in the way) so took it back.

l had a rush of blood at a camping show , & did buy 1 . Ended cup chucking it & put a broom beside the hitch as a marker . A little practice & you can chuck the broom to :cheers:

It wont work for most of us here, it is intended for users of 50mm ball couplings.
I don't have much off a issue hooking up my Trigg hitch, if the ground is not hard I have a piece of ply board I put under the jockey wheel (when unhitching) to make it easy to move the wheel to line up the 20mm pin for the hitch up.

Elcheepo reversing camera [wireless if you want to spend a few fore $$'s] works a treat.
Whats wrong with the "Grounds for Divorce" method?
Thanks guys
Ug has told me that it's no good for our camper. I am looking for anything to make it easy for me when it will be 'my turn' to hook it up.
We have a reverse camera in the pathy... Is there a way to hook one up on the camper so it uses the same screen ..... Maybe another trip to outback is required .
I have used one for maybe 15 years or more hooking on an off a tool trailer from the ute multiple times per week, and also to put the camper on occasionally .Best thing out but no good for other than 50mm ball couplings.

It's the best part of the holiday isn't it...
Especially when you get given detailed instructions like 'yeah' and 'nah' >:(
Nup, I learnt to reverse and hook up a trailer from a young kid, no dents in my cars........but I do touch find the company trailer :angel: guess you might call it lazy
Fit an OzHitch and you won't need one.
The design of the OzHitch does the work for you.

They certainly make it a lot easier. I think it also a lot easier if you don't involve the Mrs in the whole process and just do it yourself.
Fit a reversing camera above the towball, far batter than relying on directions for SWMBO.
I had that on the weekend.
