Looking for one of those odd rectangular shaped Volvo OEM Ball mount's. I have a receiver mounted on the car just never got the ball mount with it.

Almost 1 year bump. :lol:

Still looking for one of these oddball 2" x 3" rectangular Volvo OEM drawbar's, tongue, ball mount etc., etc. I can't believe I passed one up at our local PnP a few years ago, it was rusted in and I didn't have a hammer or PB Blaster with me, why I didn't go back later is beyond me. [-X

Other option I saw on TB is to weld in plates on either side to make a conventional 2x2 hole that will accept off the shelf drawbars? Also have wondered about welding 2 pieces of channel together to make a rectangular tube, I have no idea on dimensions of stock steel so maybe that sounds really stupid??

Which car is this for Jim? I have a 240 hitch with a square hole I'm looking to get rid of if that helps.

Hey Greg, this is for the red 745, although we have pondered putting a hitch on the 240 as well. We don't really need hitches on both so I would "like" to find a drawbar for the wagon, but I'll keep yours in mind.

Is yours aftermarket or OG Volvo, comes with a drawbar, bolts etc.?

Gotcha. Its original Volvo. No drawbar, but it does have the original bolts. There's some surface rust on it, but its in good shape other than that.
