Will Curt Hitch part # C13043 Fit a 2012 Lexus GX 460

Question:

I have a 2012 lexus GX460 base and it looks like I need part # C13043. I have a wiring harness but no hitch. I see the 4 holes where this part would go but it looks like 2 of the holes are threaded. will this part fit?

For your 2012 Lexus GX 460 the Curt hitch part # C13043 has been confirmed as a fit and would work well.

It will attach to the existing weld nuts you have on your vehicle as well. I attached a picture that shows a diagram that details how it would work.

If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
