Do you mean the Dixon-Bate 'Pinball Wizard'?

Andy had one for sale, don't know if he still has.

I take it that this is the one;

Without knowing why you want it, it's the only universal coupling that's safe to use with a 'Hitch Replacement Stabiliser'
All the others have the ball as part of the pin & it's only held in place with a 'R-cliup' or over-centre clip.
Not a good idea on a bumpy road - all that's stopping the caravan/trailer from departing is a 4mm pin

Did have but some little toe-rag pinched it from the motor one afternoon  :evil:

Try ebay, if not they usually go for around £70.

Sorry I can't help this time  :(
