Thanks for the update Paul. If you don’t mind sharing the hole pattern or any other unique issues you ran into, please share. Sounds like you had very good success. Enjoy!

Unfortunately I have not found a hitch to fit my 2022 Lexus RX450hL. Curt was contacted and replied they did not have a model number for this vehicle. Still no confident recommendations. Anyone who does, please reply.

What I did was, go on the Curt website and found the model they sell for a 2020 RX 450h, the mounting location is the same from 2016 up doing some searches on installation videos, everyone talks about trimming the bottom of the bumper I took some measurements and determined the size of spacers I would need (see my post) and it fit perfectly 

I don’t have kick sensors so it wasn’t an issue, but I read somewhere that people with kick sensors had no issues and other relocated the sensor, to one side.

Thanks for the information. My Lexus model is the long 3 row version (RX 450 hL). Do you know if the bolt pattern is still a match up to the hitch fitting RX 450 h from Curt you described?  Also I prefer no cutting of the bumper so I would use the spacers you described.

Just tell UHaul the car model and they’ll do the test. 2” hitch for my 2022 RX 45Oh is great. I do not have the rear kick sensor — Hitch installation may inactivate it. 

Thanks for the info. I actually have contacted UHaul already. Their response said they could build but they currently do not have a design for. They also wanted my vehicle to be delivered to Nevada for 4-5 day installation. I am on the East coast so this UHaul option not very promising.   Hence, why I am still investigating and interested in this sites experience. 

Hi.  I just purchased a 2022 RX 450 hL (hybrid long). I wish to install a 2” bike hitch receiver but unable to confirm what hitch brand and model. Dealer says no hitch available and it would cause the rear gate “foot to open” rear hatch. It would appear others have similar issue.  Sounds like you all are knowledgeable of and can recommend. Look forward to your suggestions.
