All About Towbars on Vehicles with Parking Sensors

April 30, 2017 by Megatyre Leave a Comment

Many modern vehicles have Parking and Reversing Sensors and obviously they help save a lot of paint and panel damage.

At Megatyre we know which vehicles sensors are towball sensitive and can recommend a removable tongue tow bar so … [Read more...]

Towbars for Modern Classics and New Vehicles Too!

March 23, 2017 by Megatyre Leave a Comment

Yesterday we fitted a towbar to this mint 4100 cc petrol 1996 Nissan Safari. As you can see, it is a very discrete installation with the towbar hidden behind the rear bumper.

It's surprising how many … [Read more...]

My Towball Is Rusting

August 11, 2016 by Megatyre Leave a Comment

A South Island towbar manufacturer phoned me earlier this week about one of their Dunedin customers who had complained about her towball  rusting; she had a towbar fitted back in April and had since moved to Auckland. Obviously the Dunedin towbar fitters could not help their customer so they asked me to remedy the fault on their behalf. The towball was pretty awful looking and we quickly replaced … [Read more...]
