Lexus finally released a 6500lbs tow hitch for the 03-04 GX470, the part number is PT228 60440 that's with out the ball mount.

I went to a couple of Lexus dealers and I have mixed comments about this tow hitch. One dealer said it is a bolt in kit for GX470 with out a factory installed tow hitch, while the other said it is an upgrade kit to work in conjunction with the existing 5000lbs factory hitch.

I hope you guys can help me out on this. Is the Lexus tow hitch a stand alone kit or it has to work with the existing 5000lbs hitch? Thank you
