Recommended Hitch for a 2023 Lexus RX 350
Question:
Is this hitch installed into the bumper or below the bumper? I have a 2023 Lexus Rx350.

Expert Reply:
The Draw-Tite item # DT73QR installs below the bumper. This hitch is perpetually backordered due to Draw-Tite being bought out so I have a way better option for a hitch for your 2023 Lexus RX 350. I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C29VV. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Lexus with included hardware.
I really like this hitch because the crosstube mounts behind your rear bumper leaving only the 2" receiver visible. This not only looks better it also helps with ground clearance.
I have attached a couple of pictures below so you can see how this hitch installs and what it will look like.
If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C59236 and a ball mount kit item # C45534.
I also recommend using the No-Drill Mount Bracket item # 18136 and the item # C42CR to secure the 4-way connector to your hitch. This will put it in an easy to reach spot and prevent the risk of it falling onto the road.

Hi, Looking for a hitch that would work on my 2024 RX450H+. The description doesn't list this vehicle as an application but there is a picture of my car from someone who bought it and installed it. What are your thoughts? Thanks,
