Built for vehicles fitted with extended trays or canopies, this extended towbar maintains full towing capability without compromising clearance. Rated to 3500kg towing and 350kg ball weight, it supports demanding hauling needs for work, travel, and heavy loads. The extended geometry positions the hitch correctly behind longer rear setups, helping keep coupling access practical and safe. A stated 474mm distance from the last chassis bolt hole to towball centre supports accurate fitment checks before purchase.
The heavy duty extended three piece design improves installation handling, allowing each section to be aligned carefully during fitment. This supports a cleaner final result, with mounting hardware tightened evenly to specification and positioned correctly on the chassis. Class 4 strength combines with a 50mm square hitch receiver, matching common towing accessories and mounts used widely. This receiver format also makes it easier to adjust towing height by swapping mounts, helping keep trailers level on road.
A durable powder coated finish helps protect the towbar against road grime, stone chips, moisture, and day to day wear. Regular rinsing after coastal travel can help preserve coating integrity, especially around brackets, weld areas, and fasteners. TAGโs limited lifetime warranty adds peace of mind, supported by correct installation, sensible loading, and routine inspections. After initial towing, re torque mounting bolts and inspect the receiver area to confirm everything remains secure under load.
The kit includes a direct fit wiring harness, supporting a cleaner electrical connection without unnecessary cutting or splicing. A seven pin flat vehicle side socket is supplied, helping power trailer lights reliably for safer towing during night driving. Always test indicators, brake lights, and running lights after connecting a trailer, then confirm the plug is fully seated. Route and secure wiring away from exhaust heat, sharp edges, and moving parts to reduce wear and electrical faults.
Tow ball, tow ball mount, pin and clip, plus D shackles are included so you have the essentials for towing setup. Ensure the hitch pin is fully inserted and the clip is locked correctly, then recheck after short driving distances. Use D shackles only with rated recovery points and appropriate rated gear, staying within all working load limits. For improved visibility while towing, Clearview towing mirrors are a strong complement, especially with wider trailers or caravans.
