4x4 Recovery Towbar for Ute Chopped Y62 Nissan Patrol Wagons by TAG

The TAG 4x4 Recovery Towbar for Ute Chopped Y62 Nissan Patrol Wagons is built specifically for Y62 wagons that have been converted into a ute-style tray, filling a fitment gap that standard Nissan Patrol towbars don't cover. It carries a 3500kg towing capacity and 350kg ball weight, and the 89mm x 89mm reinforced crossbar sits flush against the chassis for better departure-angle clearance off-road.

Two integrated recovery points are rated to a 4500kg working load limit, so the same unit that tows your trailer also gives your convoy a properly rated point for a snatch recovery. The bevelled side-arms are shaped to suit soft shackles, and the whole assembly wears a textured, extreme-duty powder coat built for constant sun and gravel exposure.

This towbar is engineered specifically for the chopped Y62 ute conversion and will not suit a standard factory Patrol wagon, so check your vehicle's configuration against the fitment table below before ordering.

Features

  • 89mm x 89mm Extreme Duty Reinforced Crossbar for maximum strength
  • Two 4500kg WLL-rated recovery points built into the 3-piece side-arm design, bevelled to suit soft shackles
  • Flush chassis-mounted profile that preserves departure angle for off-road clearance
  • Highly durable, textured Extreme Duty Powder Coated finish
  • Dual top-mounted Trailer & Anderson Plug Mounts
  • Class 4 Towbar with 50mm Square Hitch Receiver
  • TAG Limited Lifetime Warranty
  • Includes Zinc Tow Ball & Extreme Duty Drop Hitch rated at 3500kg towing capacity / 350kg ball weight, Pin & Clip and D-Shackles

A towbar is a safety critical item and fitment isn't always straightforward due to vehicle manufacturing variation. We strongly recommend having your towbar and wiring harness installed by a professional towbar or vehicle accessory fitting workshop.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this towbar fit a standard Nissan Patrol Y62 wagon?

No. This towbar is built specifically for Y62 wagons that have been converted to a ute-style chopped tray and will not suit a standard factory Patrol wagon. If your Patrol hasn't been chopped, check our standard Y62 wagon towbar range instead.

What's the towing capacity of this towbar?

It's rated to 3500kg towing capacity with a 350kg ball weight. Always confirm your vehicle's own GCM and compliance plate figures aren't the limiting factor before loading up to that rating.

Is a towbar the same as a recovery point?

Not automatically, but this one is. It has two recovery points integrated into the side-arms, each rated to a 4500kg working load limit, so it can be used as a genuine rated snatch point as well as for towing.

Does this towbar come with a wiring harness?

No, this listing is the towbar only. If you need trailer or caravan lighting as well, the matching TAG Extreme Recovery Towbar & Direct Fit Wiring Kit above includes the same towbar plus a direct-fit harness.

Can I fit this towbar myself?

It's possible for an experienced installer, but a towbar is a safety critical item and fitment can vary with vehicle manufacturing tolerances. We recommend professional installation by a qualified towbar or vehicle accessory fitting workshop.

Do I need to tell my insurer about a towbar?

Check with your insurer directly, as requirements vary between policies and providers. It's worth doing before fitment rather than after.

What hitch type does this towbar use?

It's a Class 4 towbar with a 50mm square hitch receiver, the standard heavy-duty fitting used across the TAG Extreme Recovery range.

How long does this towbar take to fit?

Budget around 120 minutes for fitment. This is exposed-mount fitment with no bumper removal or cutting required, though actual time can vary with workshop and vehicle condition.

Excellent & Honest Service

We try and provide the best pre and after sales service possible. If you have a question we’re here to help, and if we don’t know the answer we’ll tell you and then do our absolute best to find the answer for you. We’re also here to guide you to the best possible outcome for you. A lot of stores will simply try to up-sell you on the most expensive option. That’s not how we operate. We want to build a relationship with our customers, and the only way to do that is by being honest and direct.

4x4 Down Under is built on honesty and integrity. For example when you make a purchase with us we only charge your account once we confirm the product is ready for dispatch. Although we like to guarantee everything on our store is available we’re not perfect and mistakes do happen. If something turns out to not be available we’ll let you know immediately and you have the option to cancel your order or wait for more stock to arrive. Should you not want to wait the order is voided, and there’s no waiting a week to get your money back (it’s instant!).

Aussie and Proud!

We're Australians, and we like to support our fellow Australians, which is why all our products are sourced locally from the official Australian distributors. Nothing is imported directly and we don't stock any grey imports. This also means that all manufacturer warranties are fully honored by the brands themselves.

No Sales Gimmicks 

When you shop at 4x4 Down Under you don’t have to worry about:
  • Annoying and dishonest ’Sales Timers’ that simply reset every few hours and are there to coerce you into buying.
  • Dishonest “low stock” labels, another coercive sales gimmick.
  • False “John just bought a…” alerts. Our customer alerts (bottom left) are 100% true and we're proud of them.
  • Being bombarded by trust badges and labels everywhere you look that mean nothing. 
  • We don't spam! Your information is safe with us. It will never be shared or sold, or used to fill your inbox with garbage.

Fast Shipping with Insurance!

We've partnered with some of Australia's best couriers and freight agents to ensure your purchase reaches you in super-quick time. Once your order has been dispatched you'll receive tracking information which will allow you to track your order online every step of the way.
