How to organise your tow bar fitting.
Tow bar Types
Standard (Tongue) towbars
The standard towbar uses a tongue to mount the tow ball and are also known as goose-neck towbars. The tongue can be removed by undoing 2 bolts. The standard bar is ideal for towing lighter loads like small box trailers, tinnies, jet skis and many other single axle trailers. Ratings range from 600kg to 1600kg depending on the vehicle. There is also a large range of bike carriers that can be used with a goose-neck tow bar, see our bike rack page for details.
Hitch Receiver towbars
The hitch receiver tow bar incorporates a removable square hitch that is fitted with a quick release pin. The hitch style towbar available for the W211 E-Class sedan has a 50mm square receiver socket. This allows quick removal of the tow hitch when not in use to save those shins. The square hitch tow bar can also provide a mounting point for a wide range of bike carriers. Please see our bike rack pages for details.
