30mm x 50mm x 200mm solid bar

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif]I'm looking at making a recovery hitch, and was wondering if anyone had a piece of solid metal bar, mild steel in the following dimensions, 30x50x200mm. Cheers all [/FONT]

Looking at my tables, 30 x 50 isn't a stock size. There isn't even a way to weld two pieces together to that that size. 50x50 would need a lot of milling to get it down.

Not saying there isn't a piece out there but it might take some finding.

Fantastic Pete! I'll do that and if you ever need anything from someone in Essex give me a shout!

Here's the drawing Pete, thank you ever so much and if you need anything just give me a shout! electrical diagram drawing made up or anything let me know I'll add a bit extra so you can buy a pint too!

just incase its not very clear, 22.5mm from the centre of the left hole to the edge of the block ( 15mm from the edge of the hole) and right hand side is 26mm from the edge of the block to the centre of the large hole( or 15mm to the edge of the hole) you could go 20mm instead of 15mm. cheers
