Rear Step Tow Bar Wiring:
The ARB Summit RSTB for the 2015on MQ Triton has been designed to accept ARB’s trailer wiring kits or original equipment trailer wiring. The ARB trailer wiring kit is supplied as two separate components. Part # 3600010 and one of the separate tails, depending on customer requirements, is needed to complete the wiring.

Hi-Lift Jack Points:
Four Hi-Lift jack points are provided on the MQ Triton Summit RSTB. Two points are located on the lower edge of each wing panel. Two additional points are located on the lower edge of the 60.3mm tube.

Press Formed Wings:
Press formed wings are used to visually blend with the vehicle styling whilst providing considerable strength and hence protection to the lower edges of the vehicle tub. To provide additional strength and bracing a 70mm access holes is required in the lower section of the vehicle tub. Support brackets then mount securely to a nut plate inserted into the vehicle chassis. The support bracket is located below floor level of the tub so Outback Solution Roller Drawers or storage units do not need to be removed for Summit RSTB fitment. The Summit RSTB has been designed with three different powder coat finishes. Only the press formed wings and beaver panels have been designed to be colour coded. Natural finish is a satin black powder coat.

Diffuser Panel And Centre Lift Up Panel:
The lower edge of the Summit RSTB is fitted with diffuser panels. A light grey powder coat finish is used on the diffuser panel for contrast with the wings and the textured black powder coat used on the 60.3mm tube. The centre spring loaded lift up panel is a neat and practical solution to hide the trailer wiring connection and mount points for the optional ARB Trailer Camera kit (part #10600030), ARB Air compressor air-line fitting or 50amp Anderson plug when not in use.

Anodised Step Extrusion:
To complement ARB Summit Side Rails and Steps the same style silver anodised extruded aluminium section is used on the Summit RSTB. The extrusion provides ridges for additional grip.

License Plate Holder:
A fold down license plate holder is supplied to allow access to the original equipment spare wheel mechanism. To alleviate issues with the licence plate folding down when the vehicle is moving a 10mm spanner is included to enable a pinning bolt to be removed from the licence plate bracket.

Class 4 Tow Hitch:
A 50mm hitch is supplied standard with the ARB Summit RSTB for the MQ Triton. The tow hitch includes gussets to maintain the 3.1t rating of the Rear Step in line with the vehicles tow rating (subject to vehicle specifications). Tow chain fixture points are located directly below the 50mm hitch receiver. The location of the tow hitch pin has been positioned to allow fitment of the Bushranger Hitch (part # 58X22/A).
