Good intentions but sorry fox if you want to give advice it needs to be accurate. So needs pointing out that Alko brand standard non stabilised hitches are current & widely used so the distinction needs to be made.

To further clarify your post. An Alko stabiliser hitch will be ok on swan neck towbars both fixed & detachable but for a flange type towbar then an Alko compatible towball needs to be fitted.

I've just use a slight smear of vaseline on my towball to reduce creaking. I don't have a stabiliser hitch, as of course these need a grease-free ball.
