Talk to your local dealer about a towbar, I doubt you will find an aftermarket one for a while yet.
If your vehilce has a small radiator fan (the actual radiator doen't need changing) then it would need to be upgraded to the more powerful version. In Australia all vehilces come with the bigger fan anyway, I'm sure the US is the same. You would find the smaller fans on some european models.
There is special wiring to intergrate the towbar wiring to the vehilce, again, buy genuine.
