## Overview

The Genuine Toyota PT228-60060 Tow Hitch is a vehicle-specific, OEM-grade accessory designed for 2007-2014 FJ Cruisers. Featuring a corrosion-resistant dual-layer coating, a no-drill installation that protects your frame, and a custom bumper trim for seamless integration, it delivers a robust 5000 lb towing capacity while preserving off-road performance and factory aesthetics.

## Description

The Genuine Toyota tow hitch receiver is tested and ready for the long haul. Designed to achieve the maximum tow rating, it is finished with dual-layer paint that helps withstand corrosion due to the elements, including the sun’s ultraviolet rays. It is mounted higher up on the frame to minimize any loss of departure angle while off road. Also, integration with the vehicle’s styling is achieved with an exclusive replacement bumper trim panel. Before towing, confirm your vehicle and trailer are compatible, hooked up and loaded properly and that you have any necessary additional equipment. Do not exceed any Weight Ratings and follow all instructions in your Owner’s Manual. The maximum you can tow depends on the total weight of any cargo, occupants and available equipment. Designed for the 2007 thru 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser.

Review: Always best to buy OEM - It's the oem hitch and fulfills it's purpose while providing a clean factory look. The package arrived quickly and everything was in perfect condition. I picked up a torque wrench and did the installation myself. The hardest part about about that was talking the bumper cover off. Removing the bolts was simple enough, but pulling the cover out of it's clips took more force than I expected. It feels like you're going to break something, but you won't. Look on YouTube for instructional videos if you want to DIY.
Review: Fj cruiser hitch - Fit perfect. Authentic Toyota Part. No modifications required.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A hitch in time...
*by S***R on April 10, 2015*

It's all I ever wanted in a tow hitch. I considered some other after market hitches but decided to go with the Toyota hitch. Install went according to instructions. I know some are concerned about removing the bumper cover. It did take some effort to get it off. The cover installed back without any problems. I did have trouble with getting the first bolt in. Patience and silicon got it in and tight. All other bolts went in without issue. I bought it primarily to hold a bike carrier. After a couple of weeks, everything is solid. I like how it looks compared to some other aftermarket hitches. Now that I've got a hitch, I am going to get the hitch converter for the lights in case I do want to pull a trailer.
