2009 GS350 AWD hitch install can it be done ?
Hello,
i own a 2009 Lexus GS350 AWD Ultra pk.
I know there is hitches available for the GS but has anyone used the hitch on the GS to tow a trailer that can hold up to a yard of top soil or any soil ?? I worried about the drive train and weight all be towing. Please help all input will be very helpful

I agree with ibidu1. I have the same hitch by Curtis and it is of very high quality. It is indeed a Class 1 hitch but for the transmission's sake I wouldn't overburden it without an auxiliary transmission cooler. This is probably unnecessary but if you consistently haul heavy loads it is something to consider. I have the same trailer as ibidu1 as well, a 5 x 8 and it works flawlessly. Here is a link, hopefully it will work:
