Every installation is carried out by our trained technicians, giving you peace of mind that your towbar is safe, legal, and built to last. Key Features of Type Approved Towbars These towbars are a safe, reliable option for most modern motorhomes, and in many cases are faster to fit than custom-built alternatives. Fitting & Adjustments When installing your towbar, our team will ensure a clean, secure fit. If your motorhome doesn’t already have chassis extensions, we can fit them at the same time. To achieve a proper installation, we may also need to adjust or relocate certain components beneath your motorhome, such as: Water tanks, Diesel heaters, Corner steadies, Battery boxes or spare wheel carriers, Pipework, brackets, or other underbody fixings. All modifications are completed in-house by our experienced fitters, ensuring your motorhome remains road-safe and practical. Chassis Extensions & Underbody Work Many Type Approved towbars are designed to mount directly to factory chassis extensions. If your motorhome doesn’t already have these, we can supply and install the correct extensions during your appointment. As part of the fitting process, our specialists may need to adjust or reposition underbody components to ensure the towbar sits securely. This is all done neatly and carefully to maintain both safety and usability. Why Choose Grantham's Key Considerations When Choosing a Towbar Enquire About Our Motorhome Towbars
