    Hello, trailer hitch issue!

    Actually look on the LC Forum - several have bought a longer hitch pin from Rocky Mount or a wheel lock from 1up

    Hello, trailer hitch issue!

    There have been several previous posts on this topic where the owners were able to use a different pin - search under kuat and 1up

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    My experience is that it does not.

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    Couple things - It is intermittent so not easy to capture. Mine feels like I’m on a washboard road at times even on smooth newly paved asphalt. I tried capturing the hood flutter (which I’m not too worried about) on video and while the flutter is real, you really can’t see it on video so I...

    Lumbar won't stay put

    I have same issue. I wonder if the air system has leaks as we saw with the frequent passenger side where the air hose comes loose?

    Crossbar + Surfboard attachment

    Those crossbars aren’t the most quiet. Hopefully they will be a step down from the actual rack. I am hoping for aftermarket to replace my OEM or will upgrade to Westcott or Sherpa for a full rack. For $200 you can’t go wrong.

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    I had a first year Bronco and I would agree that my Ford dealer and Ford corporate were more proactive in fixing the first year model issues than Lexus. Lexus has very polite case managers who seemingly do nothing but try to placate you without any interaction with engineers, mechanics or...

    Nytop will have some similar sliders. https://nytop.com/2024-current-lexus-gx550-toyota-land-cruiser-rock-sliders Wescott has some for the LC that may be compatible but it’s the tube version you may not like.

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    I tend to agree with you on potential causes. I am also coming from a 21 Bronco and 12 4Runner on more aggressive AT tires than these special OEM Toyos. Mine is very smooth most of the time but intermittently feels like I am driving on a washboard road when on newly paved roads or a regular...

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    I have been speaking with 1-800-Lexus and they will reveal nothing about the vibration (my biggest concern), hood flutter and brake noise (annoyances) other than being polite and then saying I should work with my local dealer. I told them I would be happy if Lexus would state they are looking...

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    My dealer in VA acknowledges there is a brake problem and says they are waiting for upgraded parts from Lexus. They don’t acknowledge the vibration issue officially but said it might be good to come in and get it down on the record. No fixes for either for me.

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    Yes - that is exactly what I am experiencing.

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    My OT+ has the issue and the dealer master tech seemed like he was quoting off a prepared statement that this how “the trim rides“ (Coming off a Bronco on much beefier ATs and a 2012 4Runner on Toyo AT3s I find that hard to believe) Go back earlier in this thread and you will see at least one...

    Squealing Brakes 550 Overtrail

    My dealer noted that Lexus is aware of this issue and the fix is new brake pads (possibly modified vs the original) but that Lexus has not shipped the replacements yet.

    OT Roof Rack

    Much louder than my 4Runner and 460 OEM rack. Louder than 4Runner rack w bike attachment on top.

    Hitch receiver on the GX550

    24 Land Cruiser now comes with a 2nd cover that is 1/2 size, more functional and less ugly. Lexus hasn’t seemed to get on board yet.

    Few questions?

    My OT has a storage cubby below the jack storage on the left in the rear compartment. May be for an onboard compressor but I can store a recovery rope and a few other items in there and my e-flares in with the jack compartment.

    What I can’t stand about my GX - Part Deux

    Did you max out the brightness? It helped with my not as dark polarized glasses I keep in the car. Now I don't know where I will keep them.

    Few questions?

    Def not worth that. Many seem to have taken them off for noise reasons so you may be able to get some cheaply. They look easy to install. No real other cross bar options yet.

    Few questions?

    I agree w you on the storage and will be trying a cheap option I learned about on the LC from Walmart that goes between seat and center console - will report back once installed. The factory rails suck - they are not adjustable - you cannot move them up and down the rails -they are loud...

    Modification and accessory advice

    Also not sure where I would store the fly rods and gear in the one in the left. Never seen inside one so can’t really say.

    Modification and accessory advice

    Just picked up my OT+ and really want to use it well - mostly off-roading to get to fishing, hiking and camping but will look at overlanding in the future. Coming from a Bronco and 4Runner for a decade prior (loved both) I am looking for sources for and real world experience with the...

    Fly fishing and exploring GX

    Also is that a Maravia raft? Looks nice. Are you considering swapping out your running boards? Any issues off-road or on ramps with the current ones?
