Not sure what a stone stomper is - only know of rock tamer as a manufactured product. not that i have pictures but have seen a prado 150 series used a peice of RHS larger than slip in hitch (so it goes around the slip in hitch) with couple of 25x 40 rhs welded onside with truck flaps bolted onto 25x40 bloke even stood on it to access roof also had a anti rattle bolt to stop excess movement -did however need two people to insert and remove the unit.

something when i get home might knock up myself use a blank slip in hitch and have decent set behind me for rain dust all the time

Not sure what the kaymar bar has to do with it, but the stone stomper bracket attaches under the towball ( or other brand of hitch ). So doesn't touch or interfere with any bumper or kaymar bar at all.

Hi Hillel

Stone Stompers and not an off the shelf purchase and Christian makes them to your own specifications.

Before the order is placed, he needs to know what type of tow hitch you have on your vehicle, the distance that the to tongue sits out from the tow bar etc.

Give Christian a call or email, and he will get you sorted.

Like everyone that owns one, they are the best peace of mind when towing, and what you do read is all true, on just how good they are.

From one very satisfied owner of the great Stone Stomer.





Cheers

My stone stomper has just been delivered but have not fitted it to my Troopy as yet. Should fit up quite easily to the Kaymar rear bar. Found them very helpful and plenty of experience. Talk with them as Stephen suggested and see how you go with any concerns you may have.

If you have a kaymar bar you probably have a spare wheel carrier

Just check you can open the wheel carrier when the SS is fitted.

Hi Richard

They are onlt tow bar height, and even if access was an issue, it will take less than a minute to un clip the Stone Stomper.

It is not the net that is the problem but the swc handle hitting the SS bar
Very dependent on your car and SS mounting option.
Most are ok but some aren't.
It is an issue I have had to contend with.
But it is great product and there are ways around it.
Richard


Very sorry I did not read the op properly, he has a 76 series and the problem will probably not occur there.
I have a d4 and a Mitch hitch and it has been a problem which Christian has helped me resolve.

Sorry again

Thanks for replys however there is no space for the clamp type bracket and with the L bracket under the DO35 hitch there is no clearance once the tailer is hitched .The bartwhen on the upper holes will also fowl the twin wheel carrier locks/handles. Christian from ss is away at the moment so will have to wait .thanks Hillel

Christian supplies a number of different mounting brackets

At one time I used the one in the pic blow.this is not my car

What I did is invert the bracket
and mounted the bar under the tow ball tongue

If this leaves to bigger gap you can. End the bar appropriately
