Please Note: A towbar is a safety critical item and not always a straightforward fitment due to vehicle manufacturing variation. We strongly recommend you get your towbar and wiring harness installed by a professional towbar or vehicle accessory fitting workshop.
For enhanced visibility and safety while towing, check out our range of MSA Towing Mirrors – the perfect complement to your towbar setup.
Built for drivers who demand dependable towing performance, this MQ Triton towbar setup is ideal for both recreational and work related use, giving you confidence every time you hitch up. It is engineered to handle Australia’s diverse driving conditions, from city roads and highways to regional routes and unsealed terrain, without compromising safety or stability. The heavy duty construction ensures consistent performance under load, making it suitable for frequent towing applications where reliability truly matters.
The use of factory mounting points not only simplifies installation but also helps maintain the structural integrity of your vehicle. This design approach reduces unnecessary modifications, ensuring a cleaner fit that aligns perfectly with the vehicle’s original engineering. As a result, stress is distributed correctly across the chassis, which contributes to improved longevity and safer towing over time.
The durable powder coated finish adds an extra layer of protection against corrosion, stone chips, and everyday wear. This is particularly important for vehicles exposed to coastal environments, rain, mud, or dust, where long term durability is essential. The finish also helps maintain a clean, professional appearance, ensuring your towbar looks as good as it performs even after years of use.
With its Class 4 receiver and standard 50mm x 50mm hitch size, this towbar offers broad compatibility with a wide range of towing accessories. Whether you are using a bike carrier, cargo platform, trailer, or caravan, this receiver size provides versatility and convenience for multiple towing needs. It allows you to switch between accessories easily without the need for additional adapters in most cases.
The inclusion of essential towing components such as the towball, ballmount, pin and clip, and d shackles means you have a complete solution ready to go. This eliminates the hassle of sourcing additional parts separately and ensures all components are designed to work seamlessly together. Having matched components also supports safer towing by reducing compatibility issues.
The TAG Direct Fit Wiring Harness is specifically designed to integrate smoothly with your vehicle’s electrical system. This ensures reliable trailer lighting performance, clear signal transmission, and compliance with road safety requirements. Proper wiring is critical when towing, as it helps other drivers anticipate your movements and reduces the risk of accidents, especially during night driving or poor weather conditions.
Safety is a core consideration in every aspect of this towbar system. As a safety critical item, professional installation is strongly advised to ensure correct torque settings, secure mounting, and proper wiring connections. A qualified fitting workshop will also be able to confirm compatibility with your specific vehicle variant, accounting for any manufacturing differences that may affect fitment.
TAG Towbars are developed with real world towing scenarios in mind, making them suitable for tradies, families, tourers, and off road enthusiasts alike. Whether you are towing equipment during the work week or heading away with a caravan or trailer on the weekend, this towbar is designed to support your lifestyle without compromise.
The limited lifetime warranty offered by TAG reflects the brand’s confidence in its engineering and manufacturing standards. This warranty provides added peace of mind, knowing that your investment is protected over the long term. It also reinforces TAG’s reputation as a trusted Australian manufacturer committed to quality and customer satisfaction.
Pairing your towbar with quality towing accessories such as MSA Towing Mirrors further enhances safety and comfort on the road. Improved rear visibility is especially important when towing wider loads like caravans or trailers, helping reduce blind spots and making lane changes, reversing, and parking more manageable.
When you choose a TAG towbar, you are choosing a product designed specifically for Australian conditions and towing expectations. Every detail, from material selection to finish and fitment, is focused on delivering dependable performance. This commitment to quality ensures your towing setup is not only functional but also built to endure years of use.
From weekend getaways to long distance touring and demanding work applications, this towbar system provides a solid foundation for your towing needs. With professional installation, proper accessories, and regular checks, it will continue to deliver safe and reliable performance wherever the road takes you.
