I just installed my new 1 1/4" receiver hitch from Curt Mfg. on our '08 GS350. It was released on 6/1/09 (model number 11372) and also fits the IS250. It was a fairly easy install. The rear ends of the mufflers have to be dropped down, the hitch raised into the position of the muffler hold down clamps, and the muffler clamps placed over the hitch and bolted back down with the original 6 bolts. The muffler heat shield did not have to be trimmed (for my GS350) as specified in the online instructions.

Im installing this on My GS350 AWD (2009) soon as it gets delivered. Is it cool for me to ask you questions if I run into any issues?

This is a rather old post from the OP. I too have installed this on my 3GS and it was very straightforward. Feel free to ask if you have questions.

Have a friend help you out and it will take under 30 mins. (it's easier if one person holds it in place while the other bolts it in)

unbolt exhaust hangers > put hitch in place > put in new bolts. very straight forward

Anyone got any photos of any of this.... I have a V8 4Runner that I use to tow things... Mostly curious...

I'm a firm believer that there is more than one way to skin a cat. I'm going to give this a shot and will follow up with how I made out...

There is some DIY pics I posted a while back, super easy and so much nicer than a big ole roof rack.

Does the hitch scrape when coming out of driveways?

I have one on my gs350, it only scrapes on steep driveways and I'm lowered to no fender gap with 20's.
