4x4 Recovery Towbar for Ford Ranger (09/2011 - 05/2022), Mazda BT-50 (09/2011 - 07/2020) by TAG
This TAG 4x4 Recovery Towbar brings a genuine recovery point setup to cab chassis Ford Rangers (PX through PX3, September 2011 to May 2022) and Mazda BT-50s (September 2011 to July 2020). It's built in Australia for trade and fleet vehicles that need to work hard, and just as much for tourers who might need to pull themselves or a mate out of trouble. Two WLL 4500kg load-rated recovery points sit in the towbar's 3-piece side-arms, with bevelled edges suited to soft shackles, so you've got a proper anchor point for a snatch strap or winch line instead of relying on the tow ball.
The crossbar is an 89mm x 89mm extreme duty section, chassis-mounted flush to protect your departure angle rather than hang below it. It's a Class 4 towbar built around a 50mm square hitch receiver, and the standard hitch and tow ball bring it to 3500kg towing and 350kg ball weight. Dual top-mounted trailer and Anderson plug mounts are built in, finished in a textured extreme duty powder coat.
This is the towbar on its own, covering the cab chassis models listed in the fitment table below. Backed by TAG's Limited Lifetime Warranty, and fitting is a job for a qualified fitter given how much vehicle-to-vehicle variation there is in towbar installation.

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. A standard tow ball isn't engineered for the dynamic loads of a snatch strap or winch recovery.
What's the WLL rating of the recovery points?
4500kg WLL across the two integrated recovery points.
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.
Does this listing include the wiring harness?
No, this is the towbar only. TAG lists separate kits (TXR804-K101, TXR804-K201) that bundle the same towbar with a direct-fit wiring harness for PX2/PX3 and PX/PX2/PX3 respectively.
What's included in the box?
The towbar, a zinc tow ball, extreme duty drop hitch (3500kg towing / 350kg ball weight), pin and clip, and D-shackles.
How long does fitting take?
Around 60 minutes for a professional fitter.
Can I fit this towbar myself?
Because towbars are safety-critical and fitment varies by vehicle, we recommend professional installation by a qualified fitter.
