Towbar 4x4 Recovery for Toyota Hilux (02/2005 - 09/2015) by TAG (Trayback only)

This TAG Extreme Recovery Towbar covers Trayback Hilux models built between February 2005 and September 2015, building in two WLL 4500kg load-rated recovery points rather than leaving you to rely on a standard tow ball for recovery work.

The 89mm x 89mm extreme duty crossbar mounts flush to the chassis, so you keep your departure angle rather than losing it to a towbar hanging below the bumper line. It's a Class 4 towbar too, rated to 3500kg towing and 350kg ball weight with the standard hitch, covering your recovery points and your towing in one unit.

Built in Australia and covered by TAG's limited lifetime warranty, it comes standard with a zinc tow ball, extreme duty drop hitch, pin and clip, and D-shackles. It's specific to Trayback models only, so check the fitment table against your exact Hilux variant before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this towbar fit all Hilux models from this era?

It's built for Trayback Hilux models from February 2005 to September 2015 only. Check the vehicle applications table against your exact variant, since cab and chassis configurations differ.

What towing capacity does this towbar have?

3500kg towing capacity with a 350kg ball weight, as a Class 4 towbar.

What is the WLL rating of the recovery points?

The two integrated recovery points are load-rated to 4500kg WLL, higher than the towbar's own towing rating, since recovery and towing loads are rated differently.

Is a towbar the same as a recovery point?

No. A standard tow ball or hitch receiver isn't rated for the dynamic forces of a winch or snatch strap recovery. This towbar has two purpose-built WLL 4500kg recovery points in the side-arms for that job.

What is a Class 4 towbar?

Class 4 is the heavy-duty towbar classification used in Australia, built around a 50mm square receiver. This towbar is Class 4 rated at 3500kg/350kg.

How long does fitting take?

Around 120 minutes for a professional fitter.

Can I fit this myself?

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

What's included in the box?

The towbar, a zinc tow ball, extreme duty drop hitch rated at 3500kg/350kg, pin and clip, and D-shackles.

It is not a Toyota Genuine part and is not endorsed, approved, or manufactured by Toyota Motor Corporation or Toyota Motor Corporation Australia Limited.

Why Shop With Us

Why Shop at 4x4 Down Under?

We know that you have a lot of options out there, and we’re incredibly grateful that you’re considering spending your hard earned money with us. We like to think we stand out from the crowd in a few ways.

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. And if something should happen to your order while in transit you can rest assured that it's insured and you won't lose a dime!

If you still have any doubts feel free to give us a call on 1300 76 86 41, or contact us here. We'd love to hear from you.
