Broken things always fall into 3 catagories:

WD40 type.
Ductape type.
Hammer type.

If all the above fail: It aint worth fixing.

Any good towbar fitter will be able to sell you a hitch.If they can't then they will know someone who can (where are you?)there is a trailor manufacturer  in Huntingdon and my village that I could pm their numbers to you,but i don't know if they do mail order.

From the makers of your trailer would be the best bet, but will WD40 solve the problem? I'm sure there was a thread on WD40, once?

All,

The hitch on my road base has completly seized up over winter to the point that once I had got it on the car I almost couldnt get it off.  Can someone advise me of the best place to buy a new hitch?
