here is the towbar i made for it. After a lot of thought we came up with an idea of being able to catch the towbar behind the crossbar. Then we bolted it to the chain guard which is also pretty rigid. The trailer is fairly light so there wont be much pressure on the quad.left life very easy.here is a pic of the end of the towbar that catches behind the crossbar

here is the trailer the quad will be pulling. Its not so much a trailer as a tool for rolling out the sheep and barb wire. The wire is simply placed on a bar between the two upright sections. It is then held and the atv then moves forward slowly. it will save two men carrying a crowbar walking 100 metres with the roll then walking back. one man can do it in half the time now.

Great job! It looks like it should work very well.
