A
rugged, go-anywhere towbar engineered for off-road action. Designed and
built for serious 4WD enthusiasts the X-Bar is engineered in Australia
for the toughest terrain. More than just a towbar, the X-Bar has
three rated recovery points and superior strength to get you out of
any situation. Each model’s functional design elements help to keep the
breakables protected in tough situations. With a heavy duty sleek
design, protected by the Hayman Reese® lifetime warranty, the X-Bar is
your ultimate off-road towbar.
UTE Body
The Ute Body X-Bar provides rated recovery, increased strength and superior style to vehicles retaining the manufacturers rear step. The quick release cover gives the X-Bar a clean look and protects the important plugs, pins and shackles when not towing.
Quick Release Cover
The X-Bar Ute body series introduces a quick-release cover design to the concept. When not towing, a closed cover plate provides a clean appearance to the vehicle, hiding the hitch pin, shackle and plug points. Picking up on the lines of the towbar, the closed cover plate adds to the overall integrated appearance of the X-Bar. Under towing conditions, the cover plate lifts and locks to allow easy access to plug sockets and shackle points. Similarly, an open cover plate maximises off-road clearance and minimises impact damage in extreme conditions.
Recovery rated
X-Bar provides a purpose-designed and rated rear of vehicle recovery system encompassed in a fully Australian Design Rules (ADR) compliant towbar. Rated to 8,000 kg, X-Bar recovery points get you out of trouble in a snatch.
