Tow Bar

Attached are two pictures of the tow bar I made for my Zodiac601XL. The axel on the tri-gear sticks out on both sides of the wheel pants and the tow bar fits onto these two axel ends by spring action. The part that fits onto the axel ends must be at least 1/8th inch thick and of spring aluminum. The black strips you see on the inside are the soft side of Velcro to protect the paint on the wheel pants. I do not need a tow bar to pull the aircraft out of the hanger but I do need it to move the aircraft backwards into the hanger and this one works very well.
