I have a question for those of you with a trailer hitch on your W123 TD station wagons. There is a 'z' shaped brace that connects each side of the hitch's bumper-bolt hanger mount to the frame rail. These help prevent the hitch from over-turning.
I would appreciate it if someone could measure the width and thickness of that brace. A measure or estimate of the total length of one of these braces and the size of the bolt heads would be very helpful too.
One brace is shown on the right side of the photo (taken by Mobetta in March 2009) below. It attaches to a frame rail with two bolts and to the bumper bolt hanger by one bolt.
Thanks!
