The chrome plate at the towbar is to stop, when reversing, the hitch hitting the bumper. That's a fixed towbar.

What's with the scotch stabilizer what are you towing ? an older van? it looks new so I take it you put it on.

Yup. That is what I did on my 02 E53 X5 3.0d euro. Definitely an improvement.

so your using the alko hitch on the van and the stablizer
don't think that will work well together.

Is it a twin axle van

A van is a panel truck or a trailer?
