Towsure should have them.  Just needs slighty extended neck.

try your local caravan shop - they should keep them - or a caravan service place

on line you could try towsure but postage may be dear due to weight

we got ours for £20 - hope this helps cheers neil

also make sure all paint on towball has been rubbed of befor hitching as it fouls pads up

When I got our new van the dealer supplied one FOC

I can't believe the attitude of manufacturers/dealers who supply the Alko stabiliser eqipped van without the correct towball.

In our Ace handbook it shows a picture of the Alko 2004 stabiliser and says that you should lower the coupling onto a well greased towball.

I don't think that they would entertain a warranty claim for damage due to the use of an incorrect towball or for the use of grease !!
