mickq Member 740 Member For: 21y 4d Posted 09/11/08 11:39 PM Share Posted 09/11/08 11:39 PM Hey all,I'll be ordering a new XR6T soon, in manual.Just wanted to ask a couple of questions about the towbars, in case anyone knows.From what I can see, the Turbo manual towbar is rated for 1600kg. This is the only option....there is no 1200kg rated one for the Turbo manual?And if you can choose either 1200kg or 1600kg, what is the actual difference? Are any suspension settings or similar altered for the 1600kg?It may be that only the 1600kg is available so there is no choice for me to make, but thought I would check just in case.

The manuals can now tow 1600kg due to the larger diameter clutch they use. The suspension isn't touched as there is only one option for a genuine tow bar - 1600kg.
