Is there any manufacturer plate on the hitch?
You would need to measure the tube diameter where the eye bolts on, along with the size and position of the bolts, then see if you can get something matching.
However, using a head from a different manufacturer could open a whole can of liability worms, should anything go wrong.

Those big tow rings are a ballache, they bind in throat of the normal ball/pin hitches on the turn. You could go down a size on the ring if you already have a pin/ball hitch. Other than that take of the two bolts on the hitch and measure the shaft, may need to cut off the tamper proof one if its got one..

More for tractors,mogs, dumpers, telehandlers and the bigger hitch. Knott Avonride do a 30mm which will work on a normal Landrover ball/hitch.
I think he is after one of these.

Indespension sell the end on its own but I suspect its cheaper to buy the hitch you want used.
The tow bar on my Transporter is OEM with a swan neck type ball. Adding a pin would too much hassle - easier to change the trailer coupling. This compressors use will be more static than mobile but I would like the option to move it around without having to resort to putting it onto a plant trailer - which is how I brought it home....
I will pop the existing head off tomorrow and take a few measurements.
