My Avail tow bar just turned 9 years old. Blue Ox just told me they will NOT work on any bar over 8 years old...go figure. The 'soft latches' (holds the arms in the retracted position during storage) stopped working. Blue Ox says the latches are just rubber grommets held in by roll pins in the tube by the pivot. Blue Ox won't recommend this DIY and won't sell the grommets. Has anyone torn down one of these? I'm wondering if a bunch of other miscellaneous parts might come rolling out too in no particular order.
