Tow Bars for Australian Utes and 4x4s

A correctly rated tow bar is essential for legal and safe towing in Australia. UniUte supplies tow bars for popular dual-cab utes including the Ford Ranger, Toyota HiLux, Mitsubishi Triton, and Mazda BT-50, in configurations that suit everything from lightweight box trailers to heavy caravans and boat trailers. Tow bars are available in tongue and receiver hitch formats.

Tow Bar Ratings and Towing Capacity

Australian tow bars are rated to a maximum towing capacity (ATM) and a ball download limit, both of which must not exceed your vehicle's manufacturer-specified towing limit. A correctly matched tow bar and hitch ball ensures your vehicle and trailer combination remains legally compliant and road safe. UniUte can help match the correct tow bar rating to your specific ute model and intended towing use.

Wiring and Accessories

Most tow bar installations require a wiring harness to connect trailer brake lights, indicators, and reverse lights. Seven-pin flat plugs suit Australian trailers, while seven-pin round connectors are more common for caravans and boat trailers. If you're towing in off-road conditions or remote areas, consider pairing your tow bar setup with a recovery winch and bash skid plates for greater capability.
