When my previous car was scrapped I forgot to remove the car plate / bracket for my Mobray Leisure Bruna XL leaf stabiliser.
I am trying to source another. There seem to be various types available - mainly snakemaster or bulldog branded.

Does anybody know if these or any others are compatible with mine which has a Damper pivot bracket with the measurements of 32mm x 12mm?

thanks

My old snakemaster is 38mm x 12.5mm. Probably just as cheap to pickup a used stabiliser. Just cut one up because your lucky to get £5 for one and the metal was worth more.

Probably still got another in the shed that will chopped up for another project.

Little demand for them.

There are granted a few on Ebay but not many come with the car plate. I also know the one I have is still sound.

Hi, take stabiliser with you to a caravan centre our local centre has various non original car plates to choose from I would expect you to get sorted. AL

The car plate for the Mowbray stabiliser has an aperture of 35mm. x 13mm., which is smaller than for most other makes of leaf stabiliser. Plates with a larger aperture allow too much play to engage securely.

I have a Mowbray QR which I no longer need, and you are welcome to have the car plate from it if you can't source one locally.

Humberwolf - If that is a serious offer I would be happy to pay the postage costs or arrange a courrier. I am guessing you are Hull or area based - lived there 10 years but now in Milton Keynes which is a bit far to pick up.

Skoda Bob - I have an old Abbey rallyman circa 1992 - don't think it is worth replacing the hitch on. Need the plate so it can be fitted at the same time as my new towbar by the fitter.

You are most welcome to the plate. It needs a new coat of paint but otherwise is fine. Are you allowed to leave contact details on here so I can get in touch?

Thanks so much for sending the plate HumberWolf.
Got me out of a jam.
