I just purchased a Sankey trailer and need to find a NATO swiveling pintle hitch for it? Anyone seen one?

Kevin, I heard that someone on the 101 Forward Control Yahoo! list had offered one for sale recently. Hope this might help. Good luck...1969 Series IIa 88, 1972 Series III 109,

Pintle hitch
Does the lunette on the Sankey trailer swivel? The one on our CDN M100 does, and if so your pintle hitch does not need to.1968 battlefield ambulance/camper

Kevin,
The Sankey lunette does rotate!!! I move my Sankey around the drive by hand, every week, and believe me, it does swivel. If your's doesn't, make sure that the surge brake piston is not frozen (properly lubed?). This applies to the standard Sankey - I have no experience with the wide-track version.
Also, the Sankey trailer was fitted with a rear swiveling pintle. These often get removed, so if you se a Sankey without one, the owner may have it in storage...

Thanks all, I found one. Early ones may have rotated but the widetrack I bought has a plate on top of the surgebrake/lunette housing alerting you to "Fixed eye, rotating hitch required" or something close to that.The Goat, 2.8 Daihatsu Td, '73 coil conversionComment

wide tracks don't rotate.
