Towbars & Accessories
With such a broad range of towing products on the market, it’s vital to choose the right towbar and accessories for your vehicle and towing loads. There are three general varieties of towbars that you can fit to your 4×4, ute or car–light duty, medium duty and heavy duty. Your vehicle’s type and its towing loads determine the kind of towbar you should purchase.
Light Duty (Class 2) Towbars
Our Class 2 light duty towbars are typically rated up to 1200kg and are a well-engineered solution for light towing and mounting bike racks. Like all Hayman Reese towbars, our Class 2 towbars are designed for easy installation and the utmost reliability.
Medium Duty (Class 3) Towbars
Our medium duty towbars are generally rated up to 1600kg and feature a 40mm x 40mm square hitch receiver with a removable trailer ball mount. When you’re not towing, simply remove the retaining clip and hitch pin and the trailer ball mount slides straight out.
Heavy Duty (Class 4) Towbars
Our class 4 heavy duty towbars are the industry benchmark, featuring the famous 50mm x 50mm square hitch receiver. Usually rated to the vehicle’s maximum towing capacity, heavy duty towbars are a must have for towing caravans, boats and horse floats. They’re also ideal for professional tradesmen.
Our range of heavy-duty towbars also feature removable trailer ball mounts. When you’re finished towing, the trailer ball mount can be easily removed by first removing the retaining clip and hitch pin.
The 50mm x 50mm square hitch receiver is additionally compatible with our entire range of weight distribution kits, offering improved safety, handling, control and comfort when towing heavy loads.
What’s more, we offer a complete range of towing accessories, including adjustable trailer ball mounts, drop-shanks, trailer ball mount storage bags, lockable hitch pins and even bike racks that bolt straight on.
Hitch ‘N’ Go Towing A-Frames
At HBBE Automotive, we have a great selection of these towbars, along with weight distribution hitches (used to distribute the weight of the tow load over the vehicle and trailer). We also have a great selection of towing accessories.
Hitch ‘N’ Go
Hitch ‘N’ Go towing A-frames are engineer-certified to comply with the applicable requirements of ADR62/01 throughout Australia. The maximum towing capacity is 1900kg.
A standard 50mm trailer coupling is utilised to connect it to the towing vehicle. The unit is supplied with:
- An electrical plug to suit your motorhome
- A harness for the towed vehicle
- Another plug & base (to disconnect at the grille or bumper)
- An extra cable to wire your towed vehicles lights
We can supply mount kits to suit 30 different vehicles. A-frames are available in two formats:
Braked
Suitable for towing vehicles with a tare weight of over 750kg. These popularly include the Suzuki SX4, Vitara and Grand Vitara, as well as the Daihatsu Terios, Hyundai Getz and many others. This A-frame is a modification of the basic unit and utilises a mechanical override trailer coupling (as on some caravans or boat trailers). The brakes operate via a cable which is connected to the brake pedal.
Unbraked
There are a small number of vehicles on the market with a tare (or kerb) weight of less than 750kg suitable for towing where brakes are not required (e.g., Daihatsu Charade).
