  • Cargo Box and Bag Recommendation for a 2008 Lexus RX 400h
  • The Rightline Gear Sport 2 Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100S20 that you referenced can fit basically any roof style, but you would not want to have it resting on a sunroof. For a cargo box that has been confirmed to fit the factory crossbars of your 2008 Lexus RX 400H and has a slightly higher carrying capacity than the # RL100S20 you would want the Yakima Skybox NX 16 part # Y95AV.

  • Convert a 4-way to a 7-way on a 2006 Lexus RX400 H
  • If the trailer doesn't have brakes all you would need is the 4 to 7-way adapter part # 37185. The 4-way of your 2006 Lexus RX 400h will plug into it and you would be ready to go. If your trailer has brakes you would instead need the part # ETBC7 and a brake controller. For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup. I attached installation instructions...

  • 4-Way to 5-Way Adapter Recommendation for Activating Reverse Lock Out Solenoid
  • We have just what you would need. To convert your 4-way to a 5-way so that you can run the reverse light circuit all you would need is the # 47515. This will tap into the reverse light circuit of the vehicle and give you the 5th circuit needed to activate your trailer's reverse lockout.

  • Recommended Bike Rack Similar to Old Rack Attack 3 Bike Carrier
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13530 is a 2 inch receiver opening and based on your photo the Rack Attack bike carrier is a really old style that is no longer made and we don't carry any adaptors for. My recommendation is to use a similar style carrier like the Swagman Original - 3 Bike Rack for 2" Trailer Hitches # S64152-2. There are also locking knobs # P1040 and hitch pin lock and anti-rattle # S64027 which I recommend.

  • Parts Needed to Install 7-Way with Active 12 Volt Circuit on 2008 Lexus RX 400h
  • The first thing you need to install a 7-way on your 2008 Lexus RX 400h is actually a 4-way with # C59236 which you will then convert to a 7-way with the part # ETBC7L which comes with everything needed to have a functioning 7-way with the 12 volt accessory circuit active.

  • Wire, Circuit Breaker, and Charger for Connecting Charge Wire for Trailer 7-Way
  • When installing a 4-way to 7-way adapter like the part # 37185 you only have to connect the extra wires of the adapter where needed. Not everyone needs the 12 volt circuit active so some leave that off. You'd want to use 10 gauge wire like part # 10-1-1 (sold by foot) through a breaker like part # 9510 to the positive battery terminal for this. Even fewer people need the reverse light circuit active since that's not used very often. A quick splice like the # 804C ran to the reverse light...

  • Recommended 2-Bike Hitch Rack for Heavy Bikes
  • There is one class-leading hitch bike rack that is ideal for heavy bikes such as electrics that I tend to often recommend because of how happy customers are with it. The EasyFold # TH903202 from Thule is a premium quality 2-bike platform style rack that is so well thought out it could be the last rack you ever have to buy. The EasyFold has many features that simply are not found on most bike racks. It will fit both 1-1/4-inch and 2-inch hitches. It handles heavier bikes up to 65-lbs each. It...

  • Low Profile Cargo Box and Roof Rack for my 2008 Lexus RX400h
  • The Inno Square Crossbars Roof Rack System which includes the Inno Square Crossbars Part # INB117 and the Inno Feet for Square Crossbars part # INFR will add at least 3" to the top of your side rails then adding the Inno Shadow 16 Rooftop Cargo Box part # INBRA1210BK which is 13 3/8" tall would put you extremely close at 16 3/8" tall. The bottom of the Shadow is recessed slightly where the bars fit which should get you down to about 15 3/8" and seems as if it would be a great combination...

  • 2006 Lexus RX400h Hitch Recommendation
  • The hitches we offer for your 2006 Lexus RX 400h like the Draw Tite hitch part # 75153 do not have the tongue weight capacity for the weight of your motorcycle as this hitch has a capacity of 350 lb tongue weight. Only solution you'd have is a small trailer towed by your vehicle with this hitch installed.

  • Hitch-Mount 2-Bike Carrier Recommendation for a 2006 Lexus RX400H Hybrid
  • All of the trailer hitch receivers we offer for your 2006 Lexus RX400 Hybrid have a 2-inch receiver opening. For this hitch size we offer a variety of hitch-mount 2-bike carriers in both the hanging and platform types. Hanging racks support the bikes by their frames; platform racks primarily support the bikes at their wheels. Within these two general types there are available options for carriers that are fixed, and carriers that tilt away for better vehicle access The link provided will...
