If it fit a Disco 2 I think the manufacturers/sellers would know.

The crash cans at the front of the chassis are the same on the D1 and D2. I have a front mount tow bar from Watling Engineering that I got for my D2 and re-used it on my D1. The sub-frame for it fits inside the crash cans. The part numbers are different. So I suppose there is a chance the rear cross member could be the same?

Discovery 2 rear crossmembers only have 2 captive nuts built in for tow bar fastening (see the picture here https://www.bing.com/images/search?...08047835324223055&selectedIndex=11&ajaxhist=0)
So that Nato hitch bracket doesn't look like it would fit.

yep thanks had a quick look and even without them because the bumper is about four inches longer it would not work either ,,bugger
