I have recently installed a Curt (US) tow hitch receiver that was originally designed for the Lexus GX470 on my 2007 3 Door 120 Prado, I figured that it shuld fit because they are essentially the same car underneath.
Following the removal of the OEM fuel tank cover, the fit was perfect, except that some of the secondary holes do not match up and the rear muffler (resonator) is in contact with the tow bar. The rattle is only evident if I go over rough patches of road.
I was wondering if anyone is able to recommend a material that has high heat tolerance capabilities that I can glue to the tow bar and fit between the muffler and tow bar to prevent the rattles. I can live with the installation as is, but if I can do something about I would. I wish I can attach a photo here, but it appears to be quite complicated.
Cheers.
