The new Toyota Fortuner gets a face lift - well it’s a rear end lift really from the Kaymar stable. Fortuner is a good looking vehicle right off the get go and with the Kaymar rear bar option installed it is ready to take on anything.
Outback travel capabilities of the Fortuner have been given a real boost with the release of an all new, custom designed replacement steel rear bar and accompanying spare wheel and jerry can carrying capability.
Fitted with two heavy duty pivots to accommodate a mix of carriers in configurations of either two spare wheels or a spare wheel and two jerry cans the bar also includes an integral towbar rated to meet the vehicle’s 3,000/300 Kg tow/ball weight rating.
All steel construction of the bar substantially upgrades rear end protection of the station wagon while enhancing the overall look.
Carriers firmly lock to the bar with Kaymar’s tough over centre locking system which features time proven anti-rattle design characteristics and heavy duty vertical support rests. Handles are rubber dipped for a comfortable non-slip grip.
Key features include sealed LED signal lights, gas strut assisted carrier arms, chequer plate step surface, superior finish.
Employing parts cutting and welding automation in the construction of the bars ensures exacting joins for maximum strength and smooth finishing.
Vehicles featuring Toyota’s factory installed reversing sensors are catered for with relocation of the factory sensors into the bar, for non-sensor models the Kaymar steel bar reversing sensor solution can be installed to facilitate an upgrade of the vehicle’s operating capability.
The Kaymar sensor kit includes:
- 4 sensors
- Controller unit
- Buzzer
- On/off switch
- Cabling.
Regarding the factory supplied reversing camera:
- Camera relocation is only required once the left hand side carrier is fitted.
- For the carrier a camera kit including loom and bracket (K6313-KIT) is required.
- For the jerry can holder only the loom is required as attachment is provided as part of the jerry can holder.
- The jack holder, telescopic work light and HF Aerial bracket will only fit to the RHS carrier.
- If planning to install the rear bar and one carrier only we suggest the RHS carrier be the first choice to maximise accessory mounting.
- Warranty for manufacture quality covering 12 months stands by the confidence built in to Kaymar products
KAYMAR SENSOR KIT FEATURES and SPECIFICATIONS
- Sensor heads have 160° horizontal and 70° vertical detection zones. Multiply this by 4 and the coverage is the best in the world. The ability to detect a 30mm pole is the industry standard.
- Colour coding is available to match most vehicle body colours.
- When reverse gear is engaged the system will emit a one second audible tone after completing a self-diagnostic check. If an object is detected a sequence of beeps via a hidden audible speaker will get faster until a continuous tone is heard indicating the vehicle is now within 30cm of the obstacle.
- A factory style ‘mute’ switch is also installed for use when towing.
