  • Will the Curt 2 Bike Platform Rack Work On My 2004 Lexus GX-470
  • The Curt 2 Bike Platform Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount - Tilting # C18085 does come with keyed alike locks for securing your bikes to the rack and for the rack to the hitch. This fits your 2014 Lexus GX-470 as long you have a 1-1/4" or 2" hitch in place. If you need a hitch, I have attached a link below for the hitches that will fit your Lexus. The Swagman XTC-2 # S64670 also fits your vehicle. I am a big fan of Swagman's bike racks. The XTC-2 is a great value but it lacks...

  • Snow Chain Recommendation for Tire Size ST23550R20
  • For the tire size of 235/50R20 that you have on your 2022 Lexus NX 450h F Sport the chains you will need are the Konig K-Summit part # TH02230K66 which are the correct size and also the only low profile chain setup that fits your tire and won't cause any interference since due to it's unique design doesn't drape over the inner sidewall at all. It also won't damage your wheels like other chains might as well.

  • Recommended Catalytic Converter For A 2003 Lexus GS300 3.0
  • Though we do have other catalytic converter that are confirmed for your 2003 Lexus GS300 3.0 The MagnaFlow Stainless Steel Catalytic Converter - Universal # MF91004 is not confirmed to fit. I recommend The MagnaFlow Stainless Steel Catalytic Converter - Direct-Fit # MF23899. This converter has an easy bolt-on installation and it has a ribbed body that encases the ceramic to reduce expansion and distortion when the converter reaches its high operating. It is made out of a heavy-gauge,...

  • Will Installing Hitch on 2019 Lexus NX 300 Cause Hands-Free Liftgate to Unintentionally Open
  • I've checked with my Curt representative regarding your concern. I'm told that there's zero recorded instances of any hitch install causing the rear hatch of a 2019 Lexus NX 300 (or any other vehicle, for that matter) to open unintentionally without movement picked up by the sensors. If you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll also need a trailer wiring harness like # 118652, a ball mount like # D-28 along with a # PC3 hitch pin and a trailer ball like # 19260 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845 for...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2015 Lexus CT 200h
  • For your 2015 Lexus CT 200h we have the Curt hitch part # C11200 which is a 1-1/4 inch sized hitch opening. 2 inch hitches are reserved for larger vehicles with higher towing capacities like trucks and SUVs. You would have to purchase an additional bike rack that is compatible to carry bikes with this vehicle. The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Thule Camber 2 part # TH9058. We asked our demo and install guys to name their favorite, most...

  • Trailer Hitch, Towing Accessory and Transmission Cooler Recommendations for 2004 Lexus RX330
  • For a hitch, I'd recommend the Curt Class III trailer hitch, part # 13530. This hitch is compatible with AWD RX330 models, except for models with the air suspension. To complete your towing system, you'll also need a few other items: Trailer wiring harness, part # 118478 Ball mount/trailer ball kit, part # 989900 My research indicates that the RX330 has a maximum 3500lb towing capacity, so the trailer and its cargo aren't pushing the capacity. If you'll be towing a weight like this frequently...

  • Trailer Hitch, Wiring and Roof Rack Recommendation for 2019 Lexus RX 350 F Sport
  • The best hitch and wiring solution for your 2019 Lexus RX 350 F Sport for a clean install is the Stealth Hitch part # 391LXRX16T as this gives you a totally hidden hitch setup when you aren't using it as the lower hitch portion that is normally visible is totally removable. This also comes with trailer wiring as well. Then for a roof rack you'd want the Yakima Jetstream rack part # Y00425, # Y00145, and # Y06027 for a great looking and quieter rack that would allow you to carry a kayak...

  • No Drill Mounting Bracket For Mounting 4 Way Connector to Hitch Receiver Tube
  • The Curt # C13272 does not have a plate that will allow you to mount the Mounting Bracket 4-Pole Flat # 18144, but you can use the included self tapping screws in the # 18144 kit to mount the bracket on your bumper. If you wanted to avoid putting holes on the underside of your bumper, you'll want to use the # 18136 (short bracket) or # 18140 (long bracket). Either of these 2 brackets will attach to your hitch receiver tube and then allow you to attach the # 18144 for a completely drill...

  • Is it Okay for the Bumper to Touch the Curt Hitch part # C13043
  • You should only use the provided hardware to secure your hitch. Using any additional spacers or washers will void the warranty from the manufacturer. If it is an issue where the bumper cover is resting on the hitch and you are able to install it and properly torque the hardware this is not an issue and is very common on a lot of the hitches that I have installed. This eliminates the need for you to cut the bumper for clearance since it isn't really an issue. If you do not like it you...

  • Instillation of the Stealth Hitch on a 2019 Lexus RX 350 F Sport
  • The difficulty ratings are provided by the manufacturer and are general ratings for the stealth hitch and the Lexus. Some Lexus models may require more steps to get them installed. As an installer here I can tell you the fascia does not have to be removed to install the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver Item # 391LXRX16 on the 2019 Lexus RX 350 F Sport. However, attaching the latching mechanism onto the hitch cross tube prior to putting it on the vehicle will make it easier as all bolts...

  • 1-1/4 Inch to 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Adapter for 2007 Lexus IS 350
  • We have not yet had a chance to test fit the Curt Trailer Hitch # C11372 on a 2007 Lexus IS 350 so I would not be able to guarantee the Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver with 5" Rise # HT5R will be able to give you the rise you want while clearing your bumper. That said, when we test fit the Curt hitch on a 2012 IS 350, which is the same generation as your 2007, it measured 5-1/2" from the hitch pin hole to your bumper, and the Brophy adapter extends 7" which means it...

  • How To Wire A 1998 Allegro Motorhome And Tow Dolly For A Brake Controller
  • The brake controller I would recommend for your 1998 Allegro motor home is the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Proportional Brake Controller, part # 90885. The Prodigy 2 brake controller is our best selling model. It can be mounted in a 360 degree vertical range and will level itself automatically. It is a proportional brake controller which means that the brakes are applied to the tow dolly at the same time and same strength as the brakes on your vehicle. I am including a link to the installation...

  • Tire Chains for 275/50-21 Tires on a 2016 Lexus LX 570
  • The 275/50-21 tires that you have on your 2016 Lexus LX 570 are a very odd and uncommon tire size so the availability of tire chains that will fit them is limited. I spoke to my contact at Pewag and they stated that the Pewag All Square Snow Tire Chains part # PWE2228S should work for you but they have not had a chance to test them on this size. The Pewag All Square Snow Tire Chains will be just slightly larger (.014") than the owner's manual for your Lexus recommends but we do not have...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2022 Lexus RX 350
  • Yes, the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch item # DT58GR does fit the 2022 Lexus RX350s. This hitch is custom fit and bolts directly to your RX 350 with included hardware. I have linked a picture and an installation video below so you can follow along with the process and see what the final look will be. If you need a wiring harness you will Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package - 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector item # 56083.

  • 2021 Lexus RX 350 L Trailer Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendations
  • The hitch you need for your 2021 Lexus RX 350 L is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13394. This won't keep the foot operation from working but the hitch will get somewhat in the way of the sensors so you'll need to figure out the exact spot to kick your foot for the sensors to pick up your foot motion. If you don't already have a bike rack I recommend checking out the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack # KU84FR because it's right in the sweet spot of price-point and easy-to-use features. I especially...

  • 2022 RX350 Wiring Harnesses and Brake Controller
  • I would be happy to help you set your 2022 Lexus RX 350 up for towing. Since you don't have the tow ready package we are going to have to use a couple of universal harnesses to get you to a 7-way. The ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector and Installation Kit item # 119250KIT will provide you with a 4-flat connector. This harness does not require splicing of your Lexus's wires. The zero-contact interface sensors identify the current flowing through...

  • The Draw Tite hitch part # 75155 is the best option for your 2005 Lexus GX 470 as it has the best towing capacities and comes with a 7-way mounting bracket for trailer wiring if you were to end up towing. It also has the most hidden look which is similar to an OEM solution.

  • Length of Receiver Tubes on 2-Inch Hitches for 2010 Lexus RX350
  • I went to our warehouse and measured the receiver tubes on the three hitches offered for your 2010 Lexus RX350. On the Draw-Tite # 75676 (and the identical hitch 87569) the receiver tube is 6-inches long and the hitch pin hole is 2-1/2-inches from the end of the receiver tube. But for more clearance you can use the Curt Class III hitch # C13143 for your hitch-mount electric lift since it offers a 9-inch receiver tube that does not have a backing plate like the other hitches do. This 9-inch...
