accessories
Outfit your SHIFTR trailer with genuine accessories designed for seamless compatibility and performance.
From winches to alloy wheels, every part is engineered to make loading, towing, and transporting easier and safer.
Strap the vehicle down quickly and securely with the SHIFTR Tie Down Set. These heavy-duty straps slot into the deck and fit over your tires for fast, reliable vehicle securing.
The Spare Wheel is attached to the chassis using bolts. Includes the required installation hardware. Drilling holes might be needed.
The wheel itself is not powered for trailer movement. The auto-folding design provides safe road clearance and quick deployment when operated. Built tough with a cast aluminum wheel and solid rubber tire for long-lasting durability.
Get maximum protection for your vehicle with a rock guard that complements both your trailer and the car you’re towing. Fabricated from 3 mm 5052-grade aluminium in a black powdercoated finish for a rugged, premium look. Designed for easy installation, it bolts directly to the chassis using the pre-drilled mounting holes.
Redarc Electric Brake Controller (2500KG GVM)
Features:
- Adjustable braking force with a simple knob turn to suit trailer load and conditions; applies set level when vehicle brakes are used.
- LED status and braking force indication
- Override option for independent trailer brake activation
- Simple gain adjustment for variation in braking force
Important Note on Brake Controller Requirements:
Up to 2000kg GVM: A brake controller is optional. However, the trailer's electric brakes will not operate without a compatible brake controller fitted.
From 2000kg GVM: A brake controller is required by NZ regulations for safe and legal towing. Some vehicles (e.g. current-generation VW Amarok and Ford Ranger on higher trims like Wildtrak and above) come factory-equipped with an integrated brake controller, which can be used with your SHIFTR trailer.

- Trailer-mounted design stays with your SHIFTR trailer — perfect for multiple tow vehicles.
- Plug-and-play setup in ~10 minutes with included adaptors — no specialist tools needed.
- Proportional Braking — Automatically adjusts force up to 1,000 times/second for smooth, balanced stops and reduced wear.
- 5 Custom Braking Programs — Save profiles via app for different loads, conditions, or drivers.
- Integrated SwayControl — Continuously detects and applies corrective braking to reduce sway.
- Smartphone Control — Full Bluetooth app (iOS/Android) for easy setup, real-time monitoring, fine-tuning, and managing multiple trailers.
- In-Vehicle Dashboard Integration — Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support for viewing status, adjusting braking force, switching programs, and manual override directly from your car's screen while driving.
- Hill-Adaptive Response — Intelligent handling of real-world driving, including reversing mode.
- Real-time diagnostics via Smart Brake Sensor, over-the-air updates, and manual override (optional in-cab remote).

Important Note for 2501–3500kg GVM Trailers: NZ regulations require cab-controlled (direct) service brakes for trailers in this weight range.
The Elecbrakes EB2 meets this requirement through its proportional braking system and on-the-fly adjustments via CarPlay/Android Auto integration (or smartphone app) while driving.Some vehicles (e.g., current-generation Ford Ranger on higher trims like Wildtrak and above) come factory-equipped with an integrated brake controller, which can be used with your SHIFTR trailer.
(Note: The current-generation VW Amarok does not include this as standard in NZ specs, aftermarket options are typically required.)
