The Knott KF27 Drawbar Bush (OEM 577010) is a genuine replacement suspension and coupling component designed for use on selected Knott trailer drawbar assemblies. The drawbar bush provides support and controlled movement within the coupling mechanism, helping to reduce wear, absorb movement, and maintain smooth operation of the trailer braking and towing system.
Manufactured to OEM specifications from durable wear-resistant material, the drawbar bush is engineered to withstand repeated loading, vibration, movement, and the demanding conditions encountered in trailer and towing applications. Precision-manufactured for an accurate fit, it is designed as a direct replacement component to restore the correct operation and reliability of the drawbar assembly.
FUNCTION AND OPERATION
- Supports movement within the drawbar assembly
- Reduces friction and wear between moving components
- Helps maintain correct alignment of the coupling system
- Absorbs vibration and operational movement
- Withstands repeated loading during towing
- Designed for reliable trailer operation

- Other trailer systems fitted with the compatible KF27 drawbar assembly
Always verify compatibility using the trailer model, coupling specification, and dimensions before ordering, as drawbar bushes can vary in internal diameter, external diameter, material specification, and application between different trailer models and production revisions.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Always confirm the correct OEM part number, trailer model, coupling specification, and drawbar assembly details before ordering, as bushes are manufactured to precise dimensions and operating requirements. Installing the correct component is essential to maintain smooth movement, reduce wear, and ensure safe towing performance.
Common signs that a drawbar bush requires replacement include excessive play in the coupling, knocking noises, uneven movement, visible wear, cracking, deformation, or deterioration caused by prolonged use. When replacing the drawbar bush, it is recommended to inspect the drawbar, coupling head, pins, bolts, dampers, and surrounding components for signs of wear or damage. Replacing worn associated components at the same time will help maximise the reliability and service life of the complete drawbar assembly.
