4x4 Recovery Towbar for Next-Gen Ford Ranger (Styleside Ute 06/2022 - on), Volkswagen Amarok (12/2022 - on) by TAG

Built for the Styleside tub body on the next-generation Ford Ranger and Volkswagen Amarok, this TAG 4x4 Recovery Towbar fits two WLL 4500kg load-rated recovery points into the side-arms, bevelled for soft shackles, giving you a proper anchor for a snatch strap or winch line instead of relying on the tow ball.

Unlike the cab chassis version of this towbar, this Styleside fitment sits partially concealed rather than fully exposed, and fitting involves removing the factory bumper and cutting it to suit. As a Class 4 towbar it's rated to 3500kg towing and 350kg ball weight with the standard hitch supplied. Fitting takes around 90 minutes.

Built in Australia and backed by TAG's Limited Lifetime Warranty. Because towbars are safety-critical and fitment varies by vehicle, we recommend professional installation by a qualified fitter.

  • Two WLL 4500kg load-rated recovery points, bevelled for soft shackles, in the 3-piece side-arm design

  • Dual top-mounted trailer and Anderson plug mounts

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this towbar a recovery point?

Not the same thing as the tow ball or hitch tongue on their own. This towbar builds two WLL 4500kg-rated recovery points into the side-arms specifically for that job.

Does fitting this towbar require cutting the bumper?

Yes. On the Styleside fitment, the factory bumper is removed and cut during installation.

What towing capacity does this towbar have?

3500kg towing with a 350kg ball weight, as a Class 4 towbar on a 50mm square hitch receiver.

What's the WLL rating of the recovery points?

4500kg WLL across the two integrated recovery points.

How long does fitting take?

Around 90 minutes for a professional fitter, given the bumper cutting involved.

Does this listing include the wiring harness?

No, this is the towbar only. TAG lists TXR843-K101 as the kit that bundles the same towbar with a direct-fit wiring harness.

Can I fit this towbar myself?

Because towbars are safety-critical and fitment varies by vehicle, we recommend professional installation by a qualified fitter.

It is not a Ford or Volkswagen Genuine part and is not endorsed, approved, or manufactured by Ford Motor Company or Volkswagen AG.

Due to the safety-critical nature of towbars and vehicle manufacturing variations, professional installation by a qualified fitter is strongly recommended.

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.
