  • Recommended Trailer Hitch and Wiring Harness for 2019 Lexus RX350 F1 Sport
  • I have a solution for you, but the Tekonsha # 118252 is designed for the 2019 Lexus RX350 F1 Sport with the towing package Additionally, it's only a 4 way and if your RV has a 7 way plug you'll need to add that as well.. You'll want to use the Tekonsha # 118255 which comes with the converter box that will plug into your tail lights and allow you to power the lights on a trailer and provide you with a 4 way plug that is the base of any 7 way connector that doesn't come factory installed...

  • Parts Needed for Erickson ATV E-Track Tie Down to Carry RZR with 35 Inch Tires
  • I have a solution for you, but the straps that come with the # EM09160 will only safely fit up to 30 inch diameter tires. There's not a complete kit available that will work, but you can add the Erickson E-Track Wheel Tie-Down Strap with Roller Idler and Ratchet - 2" x 12' - 1,100 lbs # EM58523 to replace the straps in the # EM09160 and they'll allow you to secure your RZR with 35 inch tires.

  • Recommended Trailer Wiring Harness for 2013 Lexus RX 350
  • It sounds like you're looking for the 4 way trailer plug for your 2013 Lexus RX 350; I recommend using the Tekonsha # 118255 because we've found that the powered converters on the Tekonsha harnesses are some of the most reliable available.

  • Recommended Wiring and Trailer Hitch for a 2012 Lexus RX 350
  • The VIN unfortunately is pretty useless to us, though I do wish we could get some use of it. So with that said, we aren't going to be able to tell you if your car has the factory tow package or not. There is a pretty easy way you can check yourself though. What you'd normally do is just peek underneath your car and see if you can spot a trailer hitch. If you see a hitch there it's a good chance you've got the tow package, but since you just said you installed a hitch there's a good chance...

  • Brake Controller Wiring for Lexus RX350
  • I have the perfect solution for you to easily add a brake controller to your 2008 Lexus RX 350 without running a bunch of wires. If you install the 7-Way RV Upgrade Kit # ETBC7L then all you need to do is connect the adapter to your current 4-Way and then route the black wire to your battery through the included circuit breaker. This then gives you the lighting functions and 12V power on your 7-Way. Once this is installed the brake controller you will use is the Curt Echo # C51180. This...

  • 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...

  • Parts Needed to Equip 2019 Lexus RX350 for Towing Rental Trailer
  • For a trailer hitch, the Curt # C13272 Class III hitch would be my recommendation. I prefer the finish Curt uses on their trailer hitches. For a trailer wiring harness, I'd go with the Curt # C56217. For a ball mount, use # C45010 and # 63845 for a trailer ball. Rental trailers will use an adjustable coupler, so it'll work fine with the 2 inch trailer ball I recommended. If the trailer is large enough to require brakes (above 1500 lbs, I believe) the trailer will have a surge coupler,...

  • Recommended Tire Chains For A 2017 Lexus RX 350
  • I went ahead and looked for a set of ISSE Classic Snow Socks, and unfortunately I was unable to find a set that fits your tire however I do have another alternative for you. Instead, check out the: -Konig Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - Square Link # TH2004705255. These chains are going to be just a bit more pricey than the Snow Socks, however they will provide excellent traction in the snow or ice, is made for cars with restricted wheel wells like your Lexus, and will automatically...

  • Hitch and Wiring Installation on 2007 Lexus RX350 With Factory Towing Prep Package
  • Exactly what constitutes a towing prep package can vary widely among vehicle makers and models and can depend on whether the additional equipment was factory- or dealer-installed. Sometimes a 'tow-package-equipped' vehicle may still need fuses and/or relays installed to activate the wiring. There is a good chance the wiring is in place already. You can check under your rear bumper for any signs of wiring for a trailer connector and test them using a circuit tester like # PTW2993, or you...

  • Recommended Kayak Carrier and Load Assister for a 2010 Lexus RX 350
  • Without a doubt you're going to need a set of crossbars to mount the Thule Hullavator # TH898 to your 2010 Lexus RX 350, however to use two of these on the same set of bars you'd need bars that are around 60" long. Unfortunately the longest set of bars we have for your vehicle are the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711320 with the feet # TH710401 which are 50" long so you're not going to be able to do what you're wanting. Instead, I'd recommend going with two sets of the Malone DownLoader...

  • Recommended Hitch Lock for Kuat Beta 2 Bike Rack
  • Kuat offers two different hitch locks, the # HL1 for the # B202-114 Beta that's designed for the 1-1/4 inch receiver and the # HL2 lock that's designed for the # B202-2 Beta rack that's designed for the 2 inch receiver.

  • We have just what you're looking for. There are a few things you'll need for a complete towing package: hitch, wiring, ball mount, hitch ball and hitch pin/clips. For a hitch I recommend using the Curt # C13143 because of the higher quality powder coat on the Curt hitches, which tends to stand up to the rigors of the road a bit better than the others available. This hitch has a 2" receiver and will bolt onto your 2010 Lexus RX 350 without any drilling required. For wiring, I recommend...

  • Parts Needed to Add a 7-Way Trailer Connector and Brake Controller on a 2012 Lexus RX 350
  • No, trailer wiring harness # 118252 only provides the basic lighting functions (turn signals, brake lights, and running lights). If the trailer has electric brakes then you would need to add another connector, the most common of which is the 7-Way blade style. After installing the 4-Way, # 118252 if the vehicle has the factory tow package or # 118478 if it does not, you would then install a 4 and 7-Way installation kit # ETBC7. I have included some links that explain this installation...
