Again it seems like a friction issue that shows up with speed. parking brake dragging or a sensor on the brakes coming on when it should not. Since some folks seem to have fixed it with a brake mechanical maybe the tech could check those?
GX550 Overtrail Vibration

Not the case for mine. As noted a few times in here, there are possibly two to three different issues being experienced on this thread.
Update on my case….
Lexus put a set of 20” wheels from a Luxury on my OT. They test drove it and said the vibration went away. They put my 18’s on the Luxy and they felt vibrations in it. So now they are waiting for approval from Toyota/Lexus AU to change the tyres over on my rims to try again. They have offered me an opportunity to test drive my OT with Luxy 20” wheels when I am back for the next attempt to fix it. Personally, I hope it is just the tyres as that is an easy fix. Highly unlikely, but maybe there is a defect in the rims? Maybe it’s a dampening issue? I would like to know the weight difference between the OT 18” combination compared to the Luxy 20” combination. Sometimes it feels like the shocks struggle to dampen small bumps. It’s a similar feeling I got in my 150 Prado when I put some heavy AT’s on it. The shocks struggled with the weight, sometimes feeling like axel tramp.
