18' Series Treg Hitch for 18.58-2 - Where to buy ?

[pjulian]

Hi all,

I want to change the coupling on my Expanda to a Treg hitch, however I can't for the life of me find anybody online selling the full set of hitch and receiver with the handbrake as well, does anybody know who is selling the full combination I will need for my setup ?

Thanks
Paul

Personally I think k there are far better off road couplings that are easier to use than the treg. Is there something specifically you like about the treg?

I have had Treg couplings on my last 3 campers and vans and I just like them, I have looked at a number of others but I still prefer the design of the Treg.
Really people only have issues lining them up but I have never found it to be a problem.

Just with a tandem the line up can be harder as there is very limited sideways movement by hand.

Back toyour original question, I know you can get bhai them from ISP in Islingron (newcastle). They have an online store.

I have had a Tregg and a Trig coupling on camper and single axle van but find them a pain on dual axle jobs and I can usually hook up in 2 moves at most, I have even broke a poly block on a bank when things werent' quite in line but they are still a great coupling but for dual axle rigs there are better.....here's a list of various places just be wary of Ebay ones unless they are from an actual shop in australia as there are some dodgy welded couplings around.

Thanks for the help guys.
So what would you suggest is a better option for a tandem axle then ?

I use a McHitch Quick Hitch, so easy to use and no more arguments when we hook up

Or a DO35 they are a very nice hitch.
