If you don't want to drive your off-road or rock crawling prepared Jeep on the highway but don't have a trailer, you can still get your rig to the trailhead with the Smittybilt Adjustable Tow Bar Kit. This kit has a 5000 lb. GVW capacity and fits any standard 2" ball. The 2" coupler has arms that can be adjusted to conform to virtually any bumper. If your Jeep has a Smittybilt bumper with D-ring mounts, you can use the included D-ring brackets to attach the arms to the bumper. On all other bumpers, a pair of universal brackets are supplied which are attached to the bumper with the included hardware after holes are drilled in the bumper. These brackets attach to the arms with the included pivot brackets.
For the best appearance and long-term durability, all tow bar parts are acid dipped to remove impurities, a special "E-Coat" is applied inside and out, and finally a dual stage textured black powder coat finish is applied. Two sets of safety chains are supplied, one set to be attached to the towing vehicle and tow bar arms and the other to be attached to the tow vehicle and tow bar arms. The kit comes with all required mounting hardware and detailed installation instructions.
Smittybilt®, located in Compton, California, is the leader in the off-road parts and accessories market because they were there at its inception. Founder Basil Smith, also known as "Smitty", was one of the original Southern California 4WD enthusiasts. He started a business called Rock-ett Products, making specialized equipment for trucks and Jeeps, in his garage/machine shop in 1956. Smitty's son Tom began working at Rock-ett at an early age and became head of the ever-expanding enterprise when it became Smittybilt in the 1970s. Under Tom's leadership, the company created innovative products like the original "Nerf Bar" side step, and tubular front and rear bumpers for Jeeps. Today, thanks to their continued involvement in off-roading at all levels of the staff, which enables them to keep abreast of the latest trends and needs in the off-road market, Smittybilt remains the industry leader with a selection of over 2000 different products for trucks and SUVs.
