Getting the right towing setup is not just about convenience; it’s about safety, reliability, and knowing your gear is rated for the job. Our range is built to meet the demands of Australian roads and workloads, providing vehicle-specific solutions that bolt on and get to work. From light-duty applications to the biggest towing challenges, you will find the hardware you need right here.
Standard Towbars for Everyday Towing
For sedans, wagons, and small SUVs, a standard towbar provides the perfect balance of function and form. These kits are designed for everyday tasks like attaching a bike rack, towing a small tinnie, or moving a box trailer.
With load ratings typically between 1000kg and 2000kg, they are engineered to match the chassis capabilities of vehicles like a family sedan or a compact crossover. You get the practicality you need without adding unnecessary weight or bulk.
The designs integrate cleanly with your vehicle's factory bumper and mounting points, offering a solution that looks right and performs reliably for all your light-to-medium towing jobs. This category is your starting point for adding valuable utility to your daily driver.
Heavy-Duty Towbars for Bigger Loads
When the payload gets serious, you need equipment built for the strain. Our heavy-duty towbars are engineered for utes, large 4x4s, and commercial vans that regularly pull substantial weight. Designed for loads ranging from 2500kg up to the maximum legal 3500kg, these units are the go-to for tradies hauling machinery, families with large caravans, and anyone towing horse floats or car trailers.
Constructed from high-tensile steel with robust mounting brackets, a heavy-duty towbar distributes the load correctly across the vehicle's frame to manage immense pulling forces safely. This isn’t just about a higher number; it’s about the structural integrity needed for demanding, long-distance towing, giving you the confidence to pull big loads anywhere in Australia.
Off-Road and Recovery Towbars for 4x4s and Utes
Hauling power on the bitumen is one thing, but tackling the rugged Australian outback demands another level of gear. Off-road and recovery towbars are more than just towing points; they are essential survival tools.
Built for popular 4x4s and utes, these specialised systems often feature integrated and rated recovery points designed to withstand the sudden, immense forces of a vehicle recovery. Unlike a standard towball or towbar tongue, which can fail catastrophically under shock loading, these points provide a safe anchor for snatch straps and winches.
This allows for confident recovery in sand, mud, or on steep terrain, turning your towbar into a multi-function piece of equipment that provides genuine peace of mind when you're miles from anywhere.
Complete Kits with Wiring for Hassle-Free Installation
Selecting the right hardware is the first step, but a successful setup depends on a clean and correct fitment. Our complete kits are assembled to make the towbar installation process straightforward for both DIY mechanics and professional workshops. These packages include the towbar itself, a vehicle-specific wiring loom, a towball, and all the high-tensile bolts and hardware required.
The direct-fit wiring plugs into your vehicle's existing electrical system, eliminating the need for cutting and splicing wires, which protects your vehicle’s warranty and complex electronics. This all-in-one approach removes the guesswork, prevents compatibility issues, and provides you with everything you need in one box to get the job done right the first time.
