I don't use one myself, mine has the lock inside the hitch (which aren't much use)
Have you looked at the SAS box type? Or will that type not fit?
Best wheel clamp going are the SAS ones

That's a good lock Ian, I'd buy it off you but it wont work with the bearing savers.

I always use a very hefty motorbike locking chain. Pass it through the tow hitch on the Land Rover or around a lamp post or whatever else is handy.
