Donnington swivel hoist - quad fitting

[75]

Long shot, but does anyone have the above hoist with a coupling to attach to a std quad 50mm ball?

I’ve got one that attaches to my pick up but can’t for the life of me figure out how to make one to fit on the quad.

Just to be clear, I’m referring to the bit in red below that stops it twisting when you “swivel” the main hoist, which is specific to different types of tow bars.



But that will fit on this:

Please see pictures below. For reference I have included the same adapter as you have.

From “factory” the Quad type was still a little tight so the gap was opened up…I have been meaning to tidy up the enlarged gap for a couple of years but I’ve never got around to doing it

Kind regards,
Bob.

Your teeth must have been sore after that

Was an early morning thing just checking that it fitted the Quad before Stalking… it’s quite embarrassing really as I have a full workshop at the Farm with almost every tool and machine you could ever possibly want or need

Now I have publicly shamed myself I will cut off the plate and weld in a replacement
Kind regards,
Bob.
