Expert Reply:

The Draw-Tite Class II hitch for the 2003 Lexus ES 300 # 36336 has a gross trailer weight capacity of 3500 pounds and a tongue weight capacity of 300 pounds. As long as the combined weight of the jet ski and trailer does not exceed either of those capacities it will be able to tow the load. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view.

I have included a video of this hitch's installation on a 2005 Lexus ES 330.

To complete your towing package you will need a Class II drawbar # 36061. This part includes hitch pin and clip.

For a ball, use # 19256 (1-7/8 inch diameter) or # 19258 (2 inch diameter).

For a wiring kit use # 46255.
