Towbar Extensions: Maximize Your Towing Reach

A towbar extension increases the distance between your vehicle and trailer. It’s particularly useful when you need extra clearance to avoid hitting obstacles, or if you’re towing trailers with wider frames. Towbar extensions are ideal for accommodating trailers with rear-mounted accessories like bike racks, toolboxes, or spare tires.

  • How do I choose the right towbar extension for my setup?

    When selecting a towbar extension, consider:

     

    • Length: Choose a length based on how much additional space you need between your vehicle and trailer. For example, the 14″ extension provides more space than the 9″, while the 16″ multi-fit offers the most flexibility.

     

    • Towing Capacity: Ensure the extension can handle the weight of your trailer. Always check the manufacturer’s guidelines to match the towing capacity with your vehicle and trailer requirements.

     

    • Compatibility: Make sure the extension fits both your vehicle’s towbar and your trailer coupling. Multi-fit extensions like the 16″ model offer more adaptability for different setups.

  • What are the benefits of using a towbar extension?

    The main advantages include:

     

    • Increased Clearance: Towbar extensions give you extra room to maneuver, which is especially useful when towing larger trailers or those with accessories mounted on the rear.

     

    • Better Access: An extension makes it easier to access the back of your vehicle without detaching the trailer.

     

    • Improved Turning Radius: By extending the distance between the vehicle and trailer, the turning radius can be improved, which helps with navigation in tight spaces.

  • Can you give examples of available towbar extensions?

    Sure! Here are some options:

     

    Tow Bar Extension 14″: Provides ample extra space for larger trailers or trailers with rear-mounted gear.

     

    Tow Bar Extension 9″: Compact but effective for smaller towing setups or when only a slight extension is needed.

     

    Multi-Fit Tow Bar Extension 16″: Offers maximum clearance and flexibility, fitting a variety of towing setups.
