- Trailer Wiring Connection Needed for 2006 Lexus GX 470 with Connection Under Bumper
- Thank you for the picture!
It actually looks like you already have a 7-Way socket installed on your 2006 Lexus GX 470. If you check out the attached photo of the Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow Twist-Mount 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector # HM40920 you can see how they are similar. My guess is that someone install the 7-Way at a weird angle either to try keeping your Lexus looking factory or because they didn't have a choice. You'll want to verify that the various functions work by...

- Yes, The Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10130 will fit the same 12 inch wheel with a 4 inch width that your existing 4.80-12 size tires are mounted to.

view full answer... - Recommended 7-Way Trailer Connector for Both Trailer and Tow Vehicle
- It looks like you found the trailer-side 7-way, part # A7WCB. If you need the wiring and connectors as well use part # HS381-9000 instead. The installation will be much easier.

- Because you're only going to be towing occasionally, I recommend using the Curt Echo Mobile Brake Controllers # C51180 because it's the easiest to install. Because you don't have a factory 7 way connector on your 2006 Lexus RX 400h, you'd normally be required to hard wire in a brake controller, but the Curt Echo just plugs into a vehicle 7 way connector and then accepts your trailer plug to provide you with an install brake controller.
