Nope. The only one coming up is 917-537, includes the reluctor ring and #1/#2 dust deflector, which is for the really popular cars, such as the Camry FWD. It also only fits the RX300, all corners.
The SC/GS/LS/Supra rear half-shafts just don't seem to be covered by Dorman. The only place that we can find them is reluctorrings.com, and they cost almost as much as a new axle shaft.

Thanks much, that explains a lot.
Where did you get the reluctor ring from... are they still available?
Did some digging...
Dorman 917-537 appears to be the medium-duty ring, and appears to fit the RX300.
Dorman 917-552 appears to fit the light-duty ring, such as the Corolla/Matrix/etc.
Dorman 917-554 looks like the light/medium pickups.
Called Dorman, and they do not carry a rear ABS reluctor ring, for the GS400 (or compatible axle shaft). Argh.
Looks like https://www.reluctorrings.com/cars/lexus has part number 48-T-799-96, yet are about $50/per. Looks like replacement axle shafts might be the only option.
Thx!

Go A1Cardone from NAPA. You'll get a fully reworked OEM set of axles with new bearings and reluctor ring.
