Has anyone towed a Lexus GX460 4 wheels down? Did you need a lube pump? We are looking to purchase an 07, 08 or 09. Lexus says no, but I know people are towing them. They do make a base plate for the 07, but not the 08 or 09. The body style, per dealer, has not changed at all.

Would that be the GX470? If so, the 2003-2007 years are not towable as is and there is no lube pump available from Remco. And the 2008-2009 is an AWD model that has to be trailered - cannot even dolly tow.

You might want to check out this forum post on IH8mud - I also plan on getting my Land cruiser hooked up this spring - looks like everyone says not to do it, but there are no issues - just no one wants to be responsible if something happens. I guess a company called SLEE can help set you up as well.
