Since ill soon no longer have my trailer I'm looking at other recovery devices that take up less space and are easier to store. I'm considering one of these.. Or one of these.... Any out there at a decent price?

I have got an A frame, very easy to use, still a one man tow, rated at 2.5 tonne. I have pulled morris minors, cortina and a mate used it to tow an omega. Very good bit of kit, got it off e-bay brand new £120 delivered.
Cheers,
Stu.

Madmods, thats an impressive piece of kit but not what I'm really looking for as it neets to be bolted on to the tow vehicle, its also a bit out of my price range. Good luck with it though!
Stueyt, do you have any pics? Does it come with any extras such as a light board? What make is it?

I've got a heavy duty A-frame. I got it from MR BICKLE I've used it about 10 times. been brilliant! Its got a brand new BRADLEY cast hitch on it! Trouble is I live in leicester, the a frame is in west sussex! However I am going down there soon! Want £90 for it really! Sorry no pics because odf the distance! I've used it for picking up alfa 155's and a starion turbo etc........

StueyT, Ta for the offer but ill give it a miss, they are not much more expensive to buy brand new (see e.bay). Ill think ill hold out for an INTERTRADE item as thats the only type ive used and I was well impressed with its sturdyness.
jjp666, That looks like a decent item but out of my price range!
What kind of A frame is it CK? If you could get it up to Leics I could grab it faily easily.

Hi LT, well its pretty heavy duty!!! I have a trailer now so its reverse of your situation!! Its a 1 piece deal. no joints to connect but you need a fairly big boot space! I can mod for you if you want! Have a good powerfull mig! If you tow with an estate then it'll fit inside fine!

Hi CK, sorry for not replying sooner.
I'm going to wait until for the exact type I'm after to come up, i.e an intertrade one thats completely breaks down into bits.
